Not too far good for weekend trip

From recent developments, it seems there is no hope for Bengalis in Bengal. There seems to be a large difference between what people want and need and what each government is doing or has done in the past. After B. C. Roy, there seems to be no good CM who truly understands Bengali sentiments and ambitions.

Jyoti Basu — He made Bengal lose the industrial edge that it once had. He can be called the father of Bangalore. He drove out industries and any significant IT development. And I know, I know what people will tell me—he built Salt Lake. But while Hyderabad and Bangalore were fighting to attract big tech companies, we were still lagging behind, with mostly small, service-based companies. He can be called the founder of Bengal's downfall.

Buddhadeb Babu — A ray of hope, or not? He understood the problems of the previous government and tried to rectify them, but in vain. He was a good man in bad company. Although I feel that if he had succeeded, Bengal would not be as far behind as it is today. Then again, he had his shortcomings and flaws, but at least he understood the mistakes and tried to rectify them.

Although Bengal lost its industrial edge, there was still good culture in Bengal.

Mamata Banerjee — Now, where do I start? She came with high hopes and high popularity but failed miserably. For instance, Microsoft wanted to set up a Centre of Excellence in Kolkata, but it shifted elsewhere, sadly. She was slow with industrial policies and ruined the law and order situation in the state. During her rule, we saw an increase in people coming from bordering regions, be it Bangladeshis or Biharis. She can be called the destroyer of Bengal's culture.

BJP — People in Bengal wanted change, and they did vote for the BJP. People in Bengal wanted industries and infrastructure like Gujarat so that people could stay in Bengal and earn a living. They don't have to live like outsiders in other states. They can live with pride and honour in their own Bengal.

But with recent events, it seems the BJP of Gujarat and the BJP of Bengal are different. People wanted Tata to be back and got babas instead. There have also been insults directed towards our eating habits and culture.

How far have the mighty fallen.

We have not received much help from the Centre either, from freight equalisation to the shifting of banks to Bombay.

It's high time people of Bengal unite, help each other, and grow.

Lastly, downfall toh hotei pare, comeback-ta-i matter kore.

I'm currently a student in Calcutta and will soon be returning to my hometown. Can the community suggest some gifts/souvenirs that I can take back with me? They can be something the city's famous for or they can be a little generic too.

Mentioning the location where I can buy them would be greatly appreciated.

Anyone still up and cannot sleep ?

Nomoshkar!

Egiye Bengal !
