Rijuda (Bengali: ঋজুদা) is a fictional character written by Buddhadeb Guha.[1] Rijuda is an adventure enthusiast who explores jungles with his sidekick Rudra and also with Titir and Bhotkai who are the friends of Rudra.[2] Rudra is the narrator of these stories.[3] The jungles that he wrote about were mainly in Eastern India. He first appeared in Rijudar Songe Jongole, published April, 1973. Rijuda, who was a former hunter, later on became a conservator. The books of Rijuda teach us a great deal of things about the forests of India and about its beauty. It also knocks some moral sense into the readers.[4]
