The statement "The play `Navanna` by Nabin Chandra Das was based on the famine of Bengal" is not correct. "Navanna" is a play written by Nabin Chandra Das, but it is not based on the famine of Bengal. It is a social drama that depicts the conflict between tradition and modernity in Bengali society.
