having stayed in bengal for the last few years... n also during the 80s, there are a few stark observations: the old communist rule stifled the mass limiting them to limited aspirations, limited lifestyle & limited resource. the watchword was - allow them more n they would hanker for more. with due respect to the so called 'intellectual' population of the state, crying foul over buddhadev, have they not realized that its the same set of people under the command of jyoti basu that run the govt from alimuddin street? its buddhadev that refused to dance to their tunes. thus a reason to tarnish him n pull him down. he is a leader today without followers in his own party - an unfortunate political scenario. do they also believe that people like mamta banerjee has the IQ to run the govt? one wonders, whats the dividend recievable, behind all these song n dance n poetics n dramatics, that bengal is famous for, in retaliation to the incident. they should rather stand shoulder to shoulder to buddhadev n help him straighten his house.

Dear Arindam, Well said but who is listening? Don't hope that Mamta Banerjee or the Cong people will ever try to thing in straight line. And for Mr. Iqbal, what you are trying to implicate by the word "BONG"? Get out of Bengal, you dude!
