Binoy loved mathematics from his early youth. He completed
'Intermediate' (pre-University) from the Presidency College of the
University of Calcutta. Although he graduated with a degree in
mechanical engineering graduate from Bengal Engineering College,
Calcutta, in 1957, Binoy turned to poetry later in life.
He translated a number of science texts from the Russian to Bengali.
When Binoy took to writing, the scientific training of systematic
observation and enquiry of objects found a place, quite naturally, in
his poetry.
His first book of verse was Nakshatrer Aloy (in the light of the stars). However, Binoy Majumdar's most famous piece of work to date is Phire Esho, Chaka (Come back, O Wheel, 1960), which was written in the format of a diary. The book is dedicated to Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak.
During the 1960s he had joined the Hungry generation movement for a short time but departed.
However, he had published several poems in the Hungryalist bulletins and one of them viz., 'Ekti Ujwal Maach' became quite famous and popular among academicians.
After his disagreement with Shakti Chattopadhyay and Sandipan Chattopadhyay, he had himself written a Hungryalist broadside against them.
He was supportive of Malay Roy Choudhury during his 35 month long trial.
Binoy died in his maternal home in Shimulpur, Thakaurnagar, West Bengal, on December 11, 2006.
