It is yet another classic example of how West bengal has been ruined by communists. In fact the minster is refused to take immd. action on damage control, because he felt the building is illegal.So he wants the common peoples to lose their hardearned money.even in that case, Communists are ruling West bengal and kolkatta corporation for so many years. what kind of action they have taken against illegal construction and for Infrastucture developments.

can understand from various posts that most people out here condemning kolkata unnecessarily are politically motivated. ruling party out here extend some crucial support at govt. formation at delhi. these people are concerned about that fact and therefore giving vent to their frustration by scribbling irrelevant and derogatory messages about one of the greatest place on earth (3 nobel prize winners, 1 oscar winner ....). Their comments are not at all out of concern for bengal. as a apolitical person i appeal not to portray bad image of kolkata unnecessarily. if you say kolkata is bad then whole of india is bad

Do you think that kolkata is supposed to be in 21st century? Kolkata still look like 18th century city.
Dude, its not the incapability of the fire dept. But the nature of fire that had broke out. With the likes of plastics and tarpaulin godown within the premises the fire engulfed the majority of the shops. And 19 floor high building isnt that easy to douse off fire. Indeed its tragic and lot of money loss for the businessmen out there.

Times now news channel showed a report in which the fire dept minister had refused to take action for initial 12 hr citing reasons that building was illegally constructed. The CM didn't visit the area after such a great tragedy , but had time to visit a rally of his party. What an efficiency? These same people would have asked for resignation of modi if this had occured in gujarat.

Freinds its usual Nothing other than Red works there But they should put Red on Burrabazar Fire so atleast that would stop because Red has potential to stop everything
If a fire Brigade of a Metropolitian city like Kolkata can not be brought under control in nire than 50 hours than we will call that fire department a totally un capacable Fire Brigade. God save Kolkata in future also

Who is responsible for non-supply of electricity and water in the metro city? Don't blame Fire Brigade only. It is the left brigade, who has made Bengal a place of their dreams.
