| 16th January 2009 supartha | Great - From: back in Kolkata (again) I really appreciate the part where u have written about the killings which have happened in Kolkata during the partition .I myself was born and brought up in Kolkata , and I know what you mean , and what we are proud of . We have been unperturbed during the riots which have crippled India on many occassions. Never ever we had thought that we will do the same mistake which our foefathers did.To add to the fact is that Kolkata is ruled by a communist governments who implement their socialistic values amongst their citizens . Thanks Supartha |
