As a Kolkatan who has indeed spent a fair amount of his working life in other major citiies,I would like to express my disappointment when I read the author's sweeping comment on 'Mumbai going the Kolkata way',obviously implying a point of no return,in the most dergatory sense!The author who is senior person in the media ought to visit Kolkata and travel from the airport to the city via the newly built airport connector before he chooses to denigrate the city,which thanks to the likes of the author and his ilk has become the proverbial whipped boy who should never be allowed to rise on his feet again!! A pity really!!Glory to the country's divide!
