The British had conceptualised a metro across the Hooghly river in 1921. But the east-west Line 2 of the Kolkata Metro is unlikely to be completed even by 2021.
For an industry globally classified as hazardous, protections such as health insurance and a provident fund for workers are necessities. In Sivakasi, they remain elusive.
The industry forecasts exports are set to grow 16% in 2025-26, boosted by surplus domestic production and a drive to push into 26 underserved global markets with strong potential.
Indigenisation level will progressively increase up to 60 percent with key sub-assemblies, electronics and mechanical parts being manufactured locally.
It is a brilliant, reasonably priced, and mostly homemade aircraft with a stellar safety record; only two crashes in 24 years since its first flight. But its crash is a moment of introspection.
Young men and women from Bengal are running away to the South. Bangalore has the largest Bong population outside Bengal. Bengalis talk a lot and do very little work. they resist everything which come son their way, and they feel they have the solution to every problem in the world.
I can’t understand one thing in #EastWestMetro route of #KolkataMetro ..Why the route of Eastwest metro from #HowrahRailwayStation is only upto Salt lake (Sector-5) ? Why is the route not upto #KolkataAirport (without any interchange)
What kind of stupid planning is this??
Why such a half hearted and careless approach which is devoid of any logic?
All other metros running across other parts of India have direct metro line facility from a prominent railway station to the airport without any interchange
E.g
#DelhiMetro -NewDelhi Railway Station-Airport Express Route-Direct Route without any interchange
#ChennaiMetro : Chennai Central to Airport (blueline)-Direct line without any interchange
#Mumbaimetro :AquaLine(under-construction) passes through Dadar and CST Railway station upto MumbaiAirport -Direct Route without any interchange
#BangaloreMetro : K.R.Puram Railway station to BanglaoreAirport -DirectRoute without any interchange (Route under construction)
Entirely agree with you, don’t involve Calcutta in politics!, Very recently visited Calcutta for the first time which resulted in my post :
Quiet flows the Hooghly! In the blog :
Through the eyes of Arunachala
Anyone who has lived in Calcutta falls in love with the city for a lifetime. And if he has fallen in love, married into the city, it becomes an entirely different bond. The city and the state have seen modest growth for the last fifty years. My only prayer is that it always remains peaceful and harmonious. No one should snatch away one of the few things Bengal has going for it.
No bengaluru metro is slowest

Bongs always think they are the most intelligent people on the planet.

You didn’t say about state refusing to take any share in Kolkata Metro.

Alas! Competitive politics will not allow peace and harmony .
