Kolkata's History & Charm | Episode 1 | Kolkata Swades | POI Originals

[@jugaldewri5806]

I lived in kolkata for almost 2 years and my heart is still there. The people are very kind and warm towards other Indians unlike other parts in India, the places are beautiful, traffic is organized, you can live within your budget be it low or high, begali food, street food, markets you get anything at very minimal cost, monuments, rivers, oceans, beautiful city places. The city lights up so beautifully during Durga puja and Christmas as well. Only downside is during summer it gets really hot which lasts hardly 3 4 months and then the rain calms down everything. It still has village areas, farm lands, beautiful lakes and forests which I was lucky to experience. But mostly the people of kolkata has a smile on their faces and that is rare in metro cities. Thank you for the experience Kolkata ❤. Love from Assam ❤.

[@Electrobuzz17]

I have also travelled in assam a lot and lived there for few months. The people are sweet and caring. Politics in bad in both places but i like the smile and food of Assamese people

[@apontutul]

The humidity makes us bengalis laid back more often than not. But the intellect and the food which you can find here in Kolkata is unparalleled. Kolkata might be lagging materialistically but it is like the beautiful face of a woman in which you get actually lost yet get the feeling of being alive.

[@val-schaeffer1117]

Intellect? Duh. Among the lowest success rate in IIT JEE and Civil service exams. Do you have any objective evidence of higher IQ?

[@randomcrap2554]

@@val-schaeffer1117 What kind of retarded question is this? By your logic intellect=IQ=success in IIT JEE? How old are you 18? Kolkata has given of 3 Nobel Laurates to the country and countless other intellectuals in different fields (google yourself), and by the way, I am not from WB. Although there has been a gradual decline due to the talent pool migration out of Kolkata, the city is still by far vastly intellectual as compared to its other eastern counterparts. Illegal immigration and leftism are different issues which have tainted its image.

I live in Bengaluru for decades. It is now a 100 percentage concrete jungle. Now there is no water also. Plus hatred towards orher Indians is on rise. I had visited Calcutta, Tribeni and Bendal many decades back. Those memories of a beautiful place, extremely sweet sounding language, warm people, no rush attitude and affordable prices are still fresh. Contemplating to move to Gujurat, my home state or Bengal after retirement. My heart says Bengal all way.

I know if bengali was not in India then India can never be a independent nation because for freedom only bengal has sacrifices more rather than other state of India....the India was independent by the blood of bengal only that why netaji subhash chandra bose didinot see independent bengal but jawaharlal nehru and Gandhi have saw this show how diplomatic non bengali are..they only think about themselves... Though it is in present or in past bengal see both inflation in both partition to bengal inflammation and now also due to some political diplomatic of central Govt have a policy of development only there state not kolkata....very heartbreaking 😢
