Refused entry into their library as per the British only policy of the time, Sarkar resigned.[3] He went on to become the headmaster of Bholanath Bisweswar Hindu Academy in Rajshahi, now in Bangladesh. His students fondly referred to him as 'Master-Moshai', literally meaning Teahcer-Sir. During his tenure there, in 1926, A Text Book of Higher English Grammar, Composition and Translation was published. Shortly after the independence and Partition of India, he migrated to Calcutta in 1948.[4] The book royalties remained his primary source of income until his death in 1974.[3] He occasionally took up some work for a publishing house, but asked for only tickets to cricket matches in lieu.
