dear viewer, This video is not hate on Kolkata, we just want to tell through this video that Kolkata did not get the importance it should have got after independence, because Kolkata is a world class city, and Kolkata has immense development potential . Kolkata has seen a lot of development recently, but this video is not on the development of Kolkata, this video is only on what happened to Kolkata after independence, on the development of Kolkata, I will make a separate video
Looking at the comment section, I can see the real reason for Kolkata's downfall. Its people. It seems that everyone is in complete denial of how backward Kolkata is compared to other cities. Well, if you dont accept a problem exists, you can't change anything.
Problem is there in each and every city, but most non-bengalis and some bengalis diss Kolkata as if it is dead city, just based on media perception. Come visit modern parts of Kolkata too understand we are not behind
West Bengal needs a change of government. Development is in progress, but it requires rapid improvements, especially in cleanliness, bus , tram. and the redevelopment of backward areas. While New Town and Salt Lake are well-planned, other areas need major focus.
Being from Kolkata, many people here (especially the Northern parts) thrive in calling the old worn down buildings, infrastructure and public transport "aesthetic". This certainly affects the slow development.
Go to Newtown, Kolkata. And explore well. Kolkata is not old but it's both modern and cultural. It's first mega city with cheap in everything and considered as the safest city even in 2023. May be you had visited long ago or your research is partial based on just youtube video. Kolkata is rich in everything from infrastructure to hospitality, from safety to humanity. Just visit you will feel like being in real India 😊😊
The cream of Kolkata has already left and settled outside the city. What is left are low-skilled, low-wage workers who refuse to realize that they are obsolete, and India does not care if they are alive or dead! 😂😂😂😂😂
But nobody is talking abt that....but Bengaluru's localities are world famous. Who doesn't know Whitefield, Electronic city, Koramangala, Manyata, Ecospace etc.....
Love my Kolkata. Cheaper than other metros and still quite livable. Lots of modes of transport and no huge traffic jams. Water logging is a problem but thats all over india during monsoon. No water and electricity issues. If you run a business or have a govt job then the city is fine.
With a horrible metro connectivity, as compared to cities like Delhi, scarcity of cabs and extremely slow, old tin can buses, I don't think that's what is called good transport...
@@saptarshichoudhury513 New Town comes under Kolkata Metropolitan Area. When we talk and compare about Kolkata, Mumbai, Chennai we always talk about metropolitan area.
There is nothing wrong in this video, the main problem with kolkata people's they don’t want to accept truth that kolkata is behind of banglore , delhi , Gurugram, noida, Mumbai, Chennai, even Ahmedabad. The problem is not in video problem is in mind set of people's, that a world class city WB destroyed by left government.
Yeah I agree with you bro I am also from Kolkata but after staying in Bangalore I can say Kolkata is way behind other cities. This city still didn't start Akasa airline till now whereas other cities. Kolkata is lagging behind in almost everything Just Because I am from Bengal that doesn't Mean I will blindly support people of Bengal what is true is true it can't be denied.

Kolkata the safest city of India, 3rd in GDP wise, have variety of buisness hub , developing IT hub, affordable city with low cost of living and surprisingly less traffic conjunction than any metropolitan. open mindset towards others States and culture, we respect their culture ,we don't hate other states or other cultures specialy like south indian. Way less crime than Mumbai and Delhi, way less religion based riots than North and North-West states. Yes we have problems with IT sectors and Job problem , polution many more and we are working on it. North and South people have this superiority complex , every city in India has problem , as kolkata is only east Indian metropolitan city that's why everyone is ignorant about it doesn't check any fact and say anything they like. Just vist once you will change your mind about this city people. For context I have visited Mumbai and Bangalore, Mumbai is most developed state we would love to follow their steps , we should take notes from banglore to grow our it hub.
Bro less crime?data reveals something else.i don't think that our bengal culture is rich now bcoz Bengalis have gone into western style in much deep then any other state .note i m refering to state not only kolkata.really no religion based riots?should I show u data.what is the development rate of kolkata with respect to other metro cities of India? Bengaluru have overtook our city in terms of wealth.please dont tell me that Durga Puja is our culture see i m also bengali and no hate towards bengali but Durga Puja have now become business.everything is same but our mindset have gone wrong.now it's not 3rd bro it's 4th.yeah it very true that our city is affordable and low cost and please don't tell me that we have open mindset towards other culture.lower than south Indian but we don't accept others culture and I can spit u fact on all these topics .
@@sudiptadas101 Keep comparison always....look at Hyderabad they came from nothing to one of the best technology hub and better metropolis... Bangalore I agree... But Delhi?? No... Mumbai is having a huge infrastructure boom so traffic will reduce significantly very soon... But in Kolkata there is no sufficient project is going on to make city less congested...
Time and again this vedio have come against kolkata from many Hindi Channel youtubers... I don't know their agenda to demean this city.... No hatred against them... Now I tell you kolkata is 3rd largest economy in the country.. Much higher than Bangalore 4th,kolkata has many flourishing industries leather,MSME,Iron and steel, shipbuilding...every company Eastern India and Northeastern operations are conducted through kolkata...IT sector is only area it is lacking but still it is catching up recently....only behind Hyderabad Bangalore Mumbai Pune Chennai not any two tier city... But we will take criticism and work hard and make it great
Kolkata is rapidly changing since last 5 years. Kolkata's New Town city is becoming the next Bangalore & Gurgaon in terms of infrastructure & skyscrapers. IT, Real Estate industry, Hotels & Malls are rapidly going to Kolkata for the last 5 years.
No other city in India can match Calcutta's past glory. Calcutta was the capital of British India. Thats enough. Calcutta has such immense heritage no other city can match.
past glory has nothing to do with the present scenario. Kolkata must focus on using its past glory to leverage its position to attract higher investment and invest more on infrastructure.
Wow - what a deluded, self-hatred filled view. I am ashamed to see that you are a Bhattacharya like myself [although I have brought glory to India worldwide through my own work]. No wonder others laugh at Bengalis for basking in the supposed glory of British colonial subjugation. Subhas Bose would be turning in his grave were he buried. India actually had the world's largest economy (over 25% of global GDP) in the early 18th Century prior to British occupation, deindustrialization and looting of India's resources. Research published by Columbia UP in 2018 showed that the British stole about US45 Trillion from India from 1757-1938 (see Prof. Jason Hickel's article online about how modern Britain was built with loot from India). Britain's Industrial Revolution and much Western development was financed by 'loot' (Hindi for plunder) from India. India's world leading textile industry was systematically eliminated by the Brits so that Britain's new industrial cotton industry [copying Indian techniques and styles - e.g. 'Paisley'] could develop as 19th Century historians H.H. Wilson and Friedrich List both noted. This included tariff barriers, making India a monopolized Captive Market for British goods and breaking weavers fingers and even cutting off thumbs of the famed Dhaka Muslin weavers. Governor General Bentinck wrote that the plains of India are bleached with the bones of her weavers. India had produced the best steel in the world (Wootz) as recognized by English experts in the 1790s - and Sheffield copied its methods. French and British colonial observers noted that 18th Century India made cannon and muskets as good as any in Europe but arms production was eliminated. The oldest seaworthy ship in the Royal Navy HMS Trincomalee was built by an Indian Co. in 1817 but British competitors stopped shipbuilding in India. When 19th Century Indian engineers showed that they could design and build locomotives, this was of course suppressed. It was not until the 1914-18 Great War in Europe that India was allowed to develop some industrial capacity - then only due to Britain's emergency needs. They also killed tens of millions of the poorest in about 3 dozen famines created by Britain stealing India's foodgrains for British profit and Food Security. Robert Clive returned from Bengal with his 'loot' as the richest non-monarch in Europe and his East India Co. mafia became the super-rich new elite known as 'nobs' (from 'nabobs') whilst up to 1/3 of the population of Bengal, Bihar and Orissa (up to 10 million) died in the 1770 Great Bengal Famine created by their rapacity - as predicted by Richard Becher (a relative of novelist William Thackeray). This led to Europe's first Credit Crunch in 1772 when dozens of banks collapsed in days as Indian loot financing Western development dried up for a while. The EIC started peddling Indian opium to China from 1770 (kidnapping children to work on opium plantations etc.) which brought Britain 1/7 of its export revenues for 140 years. In 1877 Cornelius Walford showed that there were 30 famines in British-occupied India in just 120 years compared to 17 famines in all of India in the previous 2,000 years. This was because native Hindu and Indianized Muslim rulers acted to prevent and alleviate famines. The British created them with their profiteering, hoarding and exporting for Britain's profit and Food Security [it was Industrial Britain that did not grow enough food to feed itself - until after 1945 - India as a whole always did]. The Disraeli regime even set up Death Camps for victims of the 1877 manmade famine in Madras Province - giving famine victims less starvation rations for hard labour than given in Buchenwald - killing 94% of inmates. 5-7 million died whilst record amounts of Indian grain exports lowered prices in Britain and the West. Famine survivors were coerced into the new slavery of indentured labour in the Caribbean etc. Disraeli organized the biggest feast in human history, the 1877 Delhi Durbar, to celebrate Vicky being named Empress of India whilst 100,000 a week died in South India. In 1901 The Lancet estimated conservatively from the census that 19 million had died of starvation in Western India during the 1890s due to British policies. In 1936 George Orwell wrote in Road to Wigan Pier that 100 million Indians must be forced to the edge of starvation so that the British can live in comfort. As late as 1942-3, Hindu-hating White Supremacist Winston Churchill was responsible for killing millions in Bengal due to Nazi-like Collective Punishment of Bengal and - after British cover-ups were blown by the press in 1943, preventing Food Aid from other countries reaching Bengal, diverting US, Canadian and Australian grain to the UK. As ever, there were surplus food stocks in India as a whole but the Brits ensured they didn't get to Bengal. Even the Nazis allowed Red Cross Food Aid to Greek Famine victims in 1941. Many Westerners still believe the British propaganda myths, first concocted by James Mill (father of J.S. Mill) who was 2nd in Command of the EIC - that India was a Land of Eternal Poverty and Famine and the cause of this was Hinduism which had supposedly remained unchanged for 3,000 years. In truth, India had been famed for its wealth prior to British looting. The Romans complained of the Silver Drain to India in return for Indian exports. Columbus told his sponsors that he was seeking a new route to the fabled wealth and riches of India. In 1616 English ambassador Thomas Roe wrote that Delhi was the Treasury of the World. In fact it was the economic Silver Drain to India due to India's successful exports that prompted the British Conquest - taking advantage of the power vacuum that arose as the Hindu Marathas had defeated the Mughals in battle - but maintained a figurehead Mughal emperor.

Kolkata should stay like 'Kolkata '. Kolkata shouldn't be like some other cities of the world. Kolkata and London are the two cities where you can find living soul, this two cities are like living life- not like concrete's jungle. Development is the way to grow but development doesn't mean destroying the city- soul should be intact while developing, it's need planning of how to develop the city like The Kolkata- it's the city of culture _ the city of palace. Even after left government _ the rightist government like TMC didn't do anything to provide benefits for foreign investors which lead to WB's slow development or rather I'd say the reason for undevelopment of WB. The same development strategy can't work for the city of joy, for development of the city of culture_ governments should make plans according to the city and in this case for the city of palace. Government and development plan makers should understand the city first.
One reason might be work culture , i am kolkatan and worked there for more that 4 years now in bangalore. The old people in there 40s are lazy and shouts . The people needs to change hope once boomers perishes , gen zs will make the city great again.

I am from south Kolkata & I will advise to visit at least Bangalore, Hyderabad & Gugaon. You will fill the difference. Putting some lamp post, statues in middle of road, Big ben watch is not a meaningful infrastructure. We have only new town which is very small & nothing comparable to any of the tech park in Bangalore. What about electric vehicle. EV sectors are very poor. No industry on board. Inflation rate is major. Avg, income level is very low. Kolkata is at least 15 to 20 years backward to modern cities in other part of India. Culture, tradition, heritage will make us proud but will not ensure a better lifestyle, career growth since opportunity is less.
Being from Kolkata, many people here (especially the Northern parts) thrive in calling the old worn down buildings, infrastructure and public transport "aesthetic". This certainly affects the slow development.
First, the CPM rule of 34 years ensured the escape of major industries from Kolkata. Marxism vs Capitalism. Then Mamata started with taking Tata salt packet and squeezing under her feet during Singur agitation against Tata Nano project. Such volcanic act was watched on world telivision which revealed, the Agnikanya (volcanic) image of new CM. Her cohorts and lower cadres are notorious for extortion (Tolabaji). Kolkata and WB is feared and shied away by industrial giants and will be so if such a regime continues. WB has the talent pool, but alas ! The leadership failure and ugly politics for the last 46 years has made the state a laggard. It is continuing...
@@pran44442 Showing New Town and tourist spots of Kolkata or comparing Kolkata vs Dhaka does not improve the ground reality that WB is a dangerous place to live and work. Big industrial giants even today avoid WB as a business prospect. Mamata still retains Agnikanya image. Tolabaji has not stopped. Panchayat election saw 47 deaths. Do you think the big industrialists have not noticed this ? 2024 election will drain 68 deaths in WB for sure if you extrapolate the trend. Compare Kolkata of say 1953 vs 2023 and Mumbai, Chennai, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Pune, Vizag, Surat, etc. Where is the second new fast developing city in WB with hope, prosperity and growth ?
Street hawkers and food vendors make it absolutely impossible to live in a clean surrounding. Vote bank politics. The other day in my area in bangalore, police simply lathicharged vendors and chased them away. Its broad streets and breathable once more.

Ask people of WB why WB is not as developed as Maharashtra despite being Capital of India for such a long time.Most of them will say we are better,we have our culture.MF shove your culture into your butt.
Seriously I need not to watch the video, comment section is enough to know the reason behind this. Being bengali myself also, I agree with this. নিজের রাজ্য বা শহর এর ওপর গর্ব করা ভালো। কিন্তু তার মানে এটা না যে আমরা অন্য সব কিছু ignore করে যাবো। এমন গর্ব করোনা যে নিজের খারাপ দিক তাও দেখা না যায়। Seriously! ইতিহাস একটা ছিলো কিন্তু বর্তমান এ কলকাতা র অবস্থা তমন না, তার ছাড়া শুধু নিউটাউন গোটা কলকাতা না। ভুলে যায়না এটা এক সময় দেশ এর capital ছিল, আজগের Delhi ar kolkata অনেক আলাদা।

the people of this city get offended too easily. Had this been a video of Bihar, they would have flooded lectures on how bihar should improve because they know that the only state behind them is bihar. Kolkata has way higher potential but still it is not growing as fast as other metro cities in India, because ofc the infra is outdated af and the skill development is lesser. So instead of getting angry at this video, what about you guys change the reality of the city for a while, instead of just pondering on your so called "past glory".
Why don't you show areas like Salt Lake, New Town, Behala, Ballygunge and New Alipore. Just showing Old Kolkata isn't justifiable. Kolkata's economy got dragged because of the huge influx of Migrants from the BIMARU Hindi Heartland. Our State Government Coffers diminished by providing Welfare Schemes to the so-called poor people from the Hindi speaking states. We Bengalis should start thinking like people of Gujarat and Maharashtra by giving reservation to the Local people instead of welfare schemes for all.
@@AjayKumar-tz1fp We are more concerned about Bihari Hindus & Muslims both because both are invasive and terrific. I am not concerned about Bangladeshis because they are limited in number not unlimited like the Biharis.
@@AjayKumar-tz1fp The Muslims doing Hawkeri on the Footpaths of Kolkata are mostly Biharis, their aren't Bangladeshi Muslims but their are Bengali Muslims as you Biharis consider each and every Bengali as Bangladeshi.

There is factual incorrectness in this video. I am from Kolkata but I live in Bangalore.. I lived in Delhi as well as Gurugram in the past. Gurugram and Bangalore - The picture of Bangalore ( UB City ) and Gurugram ( DLF ) that you showed are not a right way of comparison. In Bangalore, traffic is beyond horrible.. 15 kms travel takes me 1.45 hours every day. In Kolkata it is close to 30 mins.. Roads are also horrible in the city if I compare it with Kolkata.. Recently the Bangalore traffic police registered almost negligible accidents in the city.. not because of the safety measures, it is because no vehicle can speed up beyond 10-20 km/hr at max, no matter when you travel unless you come out during midnight..😊 - In Gurugram, when I used to stay used to face huge electricity crisis, every house hold used to have backup. I moved to Delhi Dwarka sector 21 area to stay close to Gurugram .. the water was so pathetic, we had to buy 105 litres jar and store clean water from tanker that used to come post 5:30 PM - Kolkata infrastructure- outdated in lot of parts.. but that’s the same in other parts of India as well.. Kolkata commute is best considering it’s availability of buses, autos all across the city in reasonable prices.. I did not find this anywhere in India. In terms of basic amnesties- Electricity and water : Kolkata ranks the best in my opinion.. Even Delhi people use stabilisers for voltage fluctuation and occasional disconnection.. I have not seen electricity cut in years.. Water is free unlike other cities they charge you.. - Kolkata’s main problem is it’s government.. and I must also add there is a negative propaganda in North Indians about Bengali culture and Bengalis in general.. I have felt it highly..
Dont blame the Left Government Industries and businesses in kolkata never meant that the city was flourishing There was rampant corruption and crony capitalism under Congress rule which destined kolkata to its end The Left Government bettered the conditions from which it was under the Congress rule which hindered growth due to extreme Authoritarian measures and cronysm
Kolkata has not seen any progress or development change with time, still old 60's dirty buses and taxis, cart, in the city dirt will be seen all around.
Brother u know nothing 😂😂and delhi and mumbai has much more slum than kolkata...what u r just showing about kolkata those are market areas...yes we can not build any new buildings for it sector in main kolkata .....thats why we developed saltlake and newtown ...which is only for it and finance sector...do u know how much companies are coming there?yes its true kolkata missed many opportunities like kolkata has a big chance to win for first indias it sector ...thats the biggest lose i think...because after that they chose bengaluru and now Bengaluru is where is now...and i swear brother which u r talking about those r very common about delhi and mumbai...just one thing that kolkata service based companies r coming not maang based companies thats the main problem otherwise kolkata is doing great...and i think after the end of freight corridors and kolkata to siliguri highway and tajpur seaport ....kolkatas gdp will be again in booming mode...🎉❤❤

Today's most corrupt state in India is Gujrat where people are very afraid of their government because most of the people who live there are doing business and small medium entrepreneurs so they do not want any trouble from the government at all. Whatever the government says they easily accept and move on if some policy is introduced wrong then also they do not protest at all because if they protest they went to jail with any charges by the Gujart police and journalists are sold out to the government as well so no news are come out from tht state.
West Bengal and Kolkata suffered from 27 years of Communist Rule... Prior to that it suffered from Secular, Liberal rule of Congress.. And now it suffers from Islamic Rule of TMC... West Bengal and Kolkata has all the characteristics and mindset of remaining Anti Development, Backward, Secularist, Liberandu politics and policies.. No sane minded person would like to even visit West Bengal and Kolkata even as a Tourist..Staying there is out of Question even for a second.. Would anybody like to stay in a land which is a cocktail mixture of North Korea and Pakistan...?? The Answer is BIG NO...

Kolkata should stay like 'Kolkata '. Kolkata shouldn't be like some other cities of the world. Kolkata and London are the two cities where you can find living soul, this two cities are like living life- not like concrete's jungle. Development is the way to grow but development doesn't mean destroying the city- soul should be intact while developing, it's need planning of how to develop the city like The Kolkata- it's the city of culture _ the city of palace. Even after left government _ the rightist government like TMC didn't do anything to provide benefits for foreign investors which lead to WB's slow development or rather I'd say the reason for undevelopment of WB. The same development strategy can't work for the city of joy, for development of the city of culture_ governments should make plans according to the city and in this case for the city of palace. Government and development plan makers should understand the city first.
You will find old buildings and very old roads even in big and famous european cities too, if you think they have not developed like Kolkata used to be till turn of century I can agree abd i think it is part of culture and human psyche of places already famous they do not feel the urge to change things in large scale unless very much necessary. I found many of my bengali friends who originates from West Bengal as opposed to people like me who came from East Bengal liking such old styled roads and buildings,somehow environments like that attract them and it could have been possible reason why kolkata had resisted positive changes for long time. But unlike cities inside Europe Kolkata's decline happened much faster due to partition of bengal and India in 1947 and war of Bangladesh in1971 and huge detrimental effect of both those catastrophic events on the city. It is like having an influx of refugees into old delhi and varanasi. However unlike 'Old delhi' kolkata had also suffered a serious setback in history when British rulers decided to shift the capital of India from Kolkata to Delhi. Being a capital city is not always a positive change as capital cities also becomes unhealthy centeres of politics and immigrants from around the country, so kolkata benefited in some way as people started moving into delhi abd bombay more and kolkata less,the city would have become much less congested and much better place to live in had it not been for the burden of two waves of refugees but another important factor also worked in Kolkata's detriment which indian people are evil enough to not state and that reason is ethnic and sectarian divison within India as it always had been in history. Due to sectarian and ethnic mentality people of India and associated politics people in power in Delhi did not want to give importance to kolkata and politicians and most govts gave priority in developing New Delhi instead. Left front govt tried to arrest that culture and create a strong independent infrastructure within bengal which had resulted in West Bengal becoming a power house of agrarian development despite being mostly a Kolkata based state in the past. However , it is also correct they had unwillingly contributed decline of kolkata by neglecting development of cities in the process. That idea of concentrating on villages and welfare of village people had a historical basis too as villages in Bengal had suffered during British rule and subsequent period in independent india as primary center of activity surrounded Kolkata during British rule as well as the period before the communists had come to power which had created an elite class of city based people high on hollow self esteem borne out of power and wealth and low on practical ideas about ground level realities in places distant from the city. All those had contributed in strong public support for the communists most of whom having suffered at the hands of these elite people themselves were very wary of any change which did not have ground level demands from places around the state.that characteristics is still visible to this day. Similar events had taken place in western countries in history too and likely to recur in future too. It is also the very reason why i think it is very important that distribution if wealth and power across the population of an administrative unit is very important for survival of that unit. Unlike the communists , the TMC govt inherited much more positive political environment thanks to the stability provided by 34 years of communist rule and unlike the communists of early years Mamata never had any preference for village only development, infact she has developed both the villages and cities unlike ever before in history of the state, even though at the cost of ethical practices which by the way has seen a decline all over the world and is already creating social problems in many places. I think she has recognised it too and probably is willing to take corrective measures against her party members and govt. officials. But she is having to fight with an even uglier demon in form of hindutva politicians. But well she will win this round too.
Very uneducative video. It totally misses on many points such as how west bengal focuses more on msmes than big name companies. And the government does that because the government wants to uplift and create many big companies of the future all having roots from bengal. What Bengal thinks today India thinks tomorrow remember this.
dear viewer, This video is not hate on Kolkata, we just want to tell through this video that Kolkata did not get the importance it should have got after independence, because Kolkata is a world class city, and Kolkata has immense development potential . Kolkata has seen a lot of development recently, but this video is not on the development of Kolkata, this video is only on what happened to Kolkata after independence, on the development of Kolkata, I will make a separate video

West Bengal needs a change of government. Development is in progress, but it requires rapid improvements, especially in cleanliness, bus , tram. and the redevelopment of backward areas. While New Town and Salt Lake are well-planned, other areas need major focus.
Being from Kolkata, many people here (especially the Northern parts) thrive in calling the old worn down buildings, infrastructure and public transport "aesthetic". This certainly affects the slow development.
Go to Newtown, Kolkata. And explore well. Kolkata is not old but it's both modern and cultural. It's first mega city with cheap in everything and considered as the safest city even in 2023. May be you had visited long ago or your research is partial based on just youtube video. Kolkata is rich in everything from infrastructure to hospitality, from safety to humanity. Just visit you will feel like being in real India 😊😊

Love my Kolkata. Cheaper than other metros and still quite livable. Lots of modes of transport and no huge traffic jams. Water logging is a problem but thats all over india during monsoon. No water and electricity issues. If you run a business or have a govt job then the city is fine.

Ye bolke hilate reh bhikari
"WAS" 😢
Wow - what a deluded, self-hatred filled view. I am ashamed to see that you are a Bhattacharya like myself [although I have brought glory to India worldwide through my own work]. No wonder others laugh at Bengalis for basking in the supposed glory of British colonial subjugation. Subhas Bose would be turning in his grave were he buried.
India actually had the world's largest economy (over 25% of global GDP) in the early 18th Century prior to British occupation, deindustrialization and looting of India's resources. Research published by Columbia UP in 2018 showed that the British stole about US45 Trillion from India from 1757-1938 (see Prof. Jason Hickel's article online about how modern Britain was built with loot from India). Britain's Industrial Revolution and much Western development was financed by 'loot' (Hindi for plunder) from India. India's world leading textile industry was systematically eliminated by the Brits so that Britain's new industrial cotton industry [copying Indian techniques and styles - e.g. 'Paisley'] could develop as 19th Century historians H.H. Wilson and Friedrich List both noted. This included tariff barriers, making India a monopolized Captive Market for British goods and breaking weavers fingers and even cutting off thumbs of the famed Dhaka Muslin weavers. Governor General Bentinck wrote that the plains of India are bleached with the bones of her weavers. India had produced the best steel in the world (Wootz) as recognized by English experts in the 1790s - and Sheffield copied its methods. French and British colonial observers noted that 18th Century India made cannon and muskets as good as any in Europe but arms production was eliminated. The oldest seaworthy ship in the Royal Navy HMS Trincomalee was built by an Indian Co. in 1817 but British competitors stopped shipbuilding in India. When 19th Century Indian engineers showed that they could design and build locomotives, this was of course suppressed. It was not until the 1914-18 Great War in Europe that India was allowed to develop some industrial capacity - then only due to Britain's emergency needs. They also killed tens of millions of the poorest in about 3 dozen famines created by Britain stealing India's foodgrains for British profit and Food Security. Robert Clive returned from Bengal with his 'loot' as the richest non-monarch in Europe and his East India Co. mafia became the super-rich new elite known as 'nobs' (from 'nabobs') whilst up to 1/3 of the population of Bengal, Bihar and Orissa (up to 10 million) died in the 1770 Great Bengal Famine created by their rapacity - as predicted by Richard Becher (a relative of novelist William Thackeray). This led to Europe's first Credit Crunch in 1772 when dozens of banks collapsed in days as Indian loot financing Western development dried up for a while. The EIC started peddling Indian opium to China from 1770 (kidnapping children to work on opium plantations etc.) which brought Britain 1/7 of its export revenues for 140 years. In 1877 Cornelius Walford showed that there were 30 famines in British-occupied India in just 120 years compared to 17 famines in all of India in the previous 2,000 years. This was because native Hindu and Indianized Muslim rulers acted to prevent and alleviate famines. The British created them with their profiteering, hoarding and exporting for Britain's profit and Food Security [it was Industrial Britain that did not grow enough food to feed itself - until after 1945 - India as a whole always did]. The Disraeli regime even set up Death Camps for victims of the 1877 manmade famine in Madras Province - giving famine victims less starvation rations for hard labour than given in Buchenwald - killing 94% of inmates. 5-7 million died whilst record amounts of Indian grain exports lowered prices in Britain and the West. Famine survivors were coerced into the new slavery of indentured labour in the Caribbean etc. Disraeli organized the biggest feast in human history, the 1877 Delhi Durbar, to celebrate Vicky being named Empress of India whilst 100,000 a week died in South India. In 1901 The Lancet estimated conservatively from the census that 19 million had died of starvation in Western India during the 1890s due to British policies. In 1936 George Orwell wrote in Road to Wigan Pier that 100 million Indians must be forced to the edge of starvation so that the British can live in comfort. As late as 1942-3, Hindu-hating White Supremacist Winston Churchill was responsible for killing millions in Bengal due to Nazi-like Collective Punishment of Bengal and - after British cover-ups were blown by the press in 1943, preventing Food Aid from other countries reaching Bengal, diverting US, Canadian and Australian grain to the UK. As ever, there were surplus food stocks in India as a whole but the Brits ensured they didn't get to Bengal. Even the Nazis allowed Red Cross Food Aid to Greek Famine victims in 1941. Many Westerners still believe the British propaganda myths, first concocted by James Mill (father of J.S. Mill) who was 2nd in Command of the EIC - that India was a Land of Eternal Poverty and Famine and the cause of this was Hinduism which had supposedly remained unchanged for 3,000 years. In truth, India had been famed for its wealth prior to British looting. The Romans complained of the Silver Drain to India in return for Indian exports. Columbus told his sponsors that he was seeking a new route to the fabled wealth and riches of India. In 1616 English ambassador Thomas Roe wrote that Delhi was the Treasury of the World. In fact it was the economic Silver Drain to India due to India's successful exports that prompted the British Conquest - taking advantage of the power vacuum that arose as the Hindu Marathas had defeated the Mughals in battle - but maintained a figurehead Mughal emperor.

I am from south Kolkata & I will advise to visit at least Bangalore, Hyderabad & Gugaon. You will fill the difference. Putting some lamp post, statues in middle of road, Big ben watch is not a meaningful infrastructure. We have only new town which is very small & nothing comparable to any of the tech park in Bangalore. What about electric vehicle. EV sectors are very poor. No industry on board. Inflation rate is major. Avg, income level is very low. Kolkata is at least 15 to 20 years backward to modern cities in other part of India. Culture, tradition, heritage will make us proud but will not ensure a better lifestyle, career growth since opportunity is less.
Because Bengali are not interested in working,just want to live on their old glorious past,which was given by Britishers.
Being from Kolkata, many people here (especially the Northern parts) thrive in calling the old worn down buildings, infrastructure and public transport "aesthetic". This certainly affects the slow development.
Kolkata and Bengal suffered due to Naxalite movement and communism and later on policies of Mamta govt. Inspite of this Kolkata is changing fast.
First, the CPM rule of 34 years ensured the escape of major industries from Kolkata. Marxism vs Capitalism. Then Mamata started with taking Tata salt packet and squeezing under her feet during Singur agitation against Tata Nano project. Such volcanic act was watched on world telivision which revealed, the Agnikanya (volcanic) image of new CM. Her cohorts and lower cadres are notorious for extortion (Tolabaji).
Kolkata and WB is feared and shied away by industrial giants and will be so if such a regime continues. WB has the talent pool, but alas ! The leadership failure and ugly politics for the last 46 years has made the state a laggard. It is continuing...

Bahar may baithke old kolkata ko dikhake Downfall bolna asan hai, Naya Kolkata Newtown Rajarhat Saltlake may ja kar video bana vai. Itna clean, Itna fast, Itna Safe koi bhi city hai hi nahi. Humare Kolkata planned hai, bad baki city 90% unplanned hai . Jiske karan 50min se 1hour traffic may udhar fasna padta hai. idhar sab smooth hai.
the people of this city get offended too easily. Had this been a video of Bihar, they would have flooded lectures on how bihar should improve because they know that the only state behind them is bihar. Kolkata has way higher potential but still it is not growing as fast as other metro cities in India, because ofc the infra is outdated af and the skill development is lesser. So instead of getting angry at this video, what about you guys change the reality of the city for a while, instead of just pondering on your so called "past glory".
🤗🤗🤗
Bihar is way worse though
up is way better
Right
Why don't you show areas like Salt Lake, New Town, Behala, Ballygunge and New Alipore. Just showing Old Kolkata isn't justifiable. Kolkata's economy got dragged because of the huge influx of Migrants from the BIMARU Hindi Heartland. Our State Government Coffers diminished by providing Welfare Schemes to the so-called poor people from the Hindi speaking states. We Bengalis should start thinking like people of Gujarat and Maharashtra by giving reservation to the Local people instead of welfare schemes for all.
What about Bangladeshi muslim they they are your relatives
@@AjayKumar-tz1fp We are more concerned about Bihari Hindus & Muslims both because both are invasive and terrific. I am not concerned about Bangladeshis because they are limited in number not unlimited like the Biharis.
What about the rest of the areas, do they not come under kolkata or west bengal?
@@AjayKumar-tz1fp The Muslims doing Hawkeri on the Footpaths of Kolkata are mostly Biharis, their aren't Bangladeshi Muslims but their are Bengali Muslims as you Biharis consider each and every Bengali as Bangladeshi.
@@jojowowo628 All the areas under the Jurisdiction of the State of West Bengal would be considered under West Bengal only whether metropolitan or not.
Then why so many Biharis , Marowaris, are doing business in Kolkata , if the city is so outdated , then why so many foreign tourists come here , why Kolkata book fare is still no 1 in India , why the cost of living is so less compared to other cities of India , why Kolkata is the safest City in India,

When u don't hear about New town 😂
Kolkata is dead already
Kolkata have changed.
There is factual incorrectness in this video. I am from Kolkata but I live in Bangalore.. I lived in Delhi as well as Gurugram in the past.
Gurugram and Bangalore
- The picture of Bangalore ( UB City ) and Gurugram ( DLF ) that you showed are not a right way of comparison. In Bangalore, traffic is beyond horrible.. 15 kms travel takes me 1.45 hours every day. In Kolkata it is close to 30 mins.. Roads are also horrible in the city if I compare it with Kolkata.. Recently the Bangalore traffic police registered almost negligible accidents in the city.. not because of the safety measures, it is because no vehicle can speed up beyond 10-20 km/hr at max, no matter when you travel unless you come out during midnight..😊
- In Gurugram, when I used to stay used to face huge electricity crisis, every house hold used to have backup. I moved to Delhi Dwarka sector 21 area to stay close to Gurugram .. the water was so pathetic, we had to buy 105 litres jar and store clean water from tanker that used to come post 5:30 PM
- Kolkata infrastructure- outdated in lot of parts.. but that’s the same in other parts of India as well.. Kolkata commute is best considering it’s availability of buses, autos all across the city in reasonable prices.. I did not find this anywhere in India. In terms of basic amnesties- Electricity and water : Kolkata ranks the best in my opinion.. Even Delhi people use stabilisers for voltage fluctuation and occasional disconnection.. I have not seen electricity cut in years.. Water is free unlike other cities they charge you..
- Kolkata’s main problem is it’s government.. and I must also add there is a negative propaganda in North Indians about Bengali culture and Bengalis in general.. I have felt it highly..
After Bihari Bengali are the most disrespected community among major Indians.

Dont blame the Left Government
Industries and businesses in kolkata never meant that the city was flourishing
There was rampant corruption and crony capitalism under Congress rule which destined kolkata to its end
The Left Government bettered the conditions from which it was under the Congress rule which hindered growth due to extreme Authoritarian measures and cronysm
Basic reason is corruption and politics
Kolkata has not seen any progress or development change with time, still old 60's dirty buses and taxis, cart, in the city dirt will be seen all around.
Brother u know nothing 😂😂and delhi and mumbai has much more slum than kolkata...what u r just showing about kolkata those are market areas...yes we can not build any new buildings for it sector in main kolkata
.....thats why we developed saltlake and newtown ...which is only for it and finance sector...do u know how much companies are coming there?yes its true kolkata missed many opportunities like kolkata has a big chance to win for first indias it sector ...thats the biggest lose i think...because after that they chose bengaluru and now Bengaluru is where is now...and i swear brother which u r talking about those r very common about delhi and mumbai...just one thing that kolkata service based companies r coming not maang based companies thats the main problem otherwise kolkata is doing great...and i think after the end of freight corridors and kolkata to siliguri highway and tajpur seaport ....kolkatas gdp will be again in booming mode...🎉❤❤

Today's most corrupt state in India is Gujrat where people are very afraid of their government because most of the people who live there are doing business and small medium entrepreneurs so they do not want any trouble from the government at all.
Whatever the government says they easily accept and move on if some policy is introduced wrong then also they do not protest at all because if they protest they went to jail with any charges by the Gujart police and journalists are sold out to the government as well so no news are come out from tht state.

No research has been done and half knowledge is always dangerous
Footwear industry khadims, sreeleathers
I haven't seen a bigger lie or a deeper misconception than this. People have very incorrect sense of development.
You will find old buildings and very old roads even in big and famous european cities too, if you think they have not developed like Kolkata used to be till turn of century I can agree abd i think it is part of culture and human psyche of places already famous they do not feel the urge to change things in large scale unless very much necessary. I found many of my bengali friends who originates from West Bengal as opposed to people like me who came from East Bengal liking such old styled roads and buildings,somehow environments like that attract them and it could have been possible reason why kolkata had resisted positive changes for long time.
But unlike cities inside Europe Kolkata's decline happened much faster due to partition of bengal and India in 1947 and war of Bangladesh in1971 and huge detrimental effect of both those catastrophic events on the city. It is like having an influx of refugees into old delhi and varanasi. However unlike 'Old delhi' kolkata had also suffered a serious setback in history when British rulers decided to shift the capital of India from Kolkata to Delhi.
Being a capital city is not always a positive change as capital cities also becomes unhealthy centeres of politics and immigrants from around the country, so kolkata benefited in some way as people started moving into delhi abd bombay more and kolkata less,the city would have become much less congested and much better place to live in had it not been for the burden of two waves of refugees but another important factor also worked in Kolkata's detriment which indian people are evil enough to not state and that reason is ethnic and sectarian divison within India as it always had been in history. Due to sectarian and ethnic mentality people of India and associated politics people in power in Delhi did not want to give importance to kolkata and politicians and most govts gave priority in developing New Delhi instead.
Left front govt tried to arrest that culture and create a strong independent infrastructure within bengal which had resulted in West Bengal becoming a power house of agrarian development despite being mostly a Kolkata based state in the past.
However , it is also correct they had unwillingly contributed decline of kolkata by neglecting development of cities in the process. That idea of concentrating on villages and welfare of village people had a historical basis too as villages in Bengal had suffered during British rule and subsequent period in independent india as primary center of activity surrounded Kolkata during British rule as well as the period before the communists had come to power which had created an elite class of city based people high on hollow self esteem borne out of power and wealth and low on practical ideas about ground level realities in places distant from the city.
All those had contributed in strong public support for the communists most of whom having suffered at the hands of these elite people themselves were very wary of any change which did not have ground level demands from places around the state.that characteristics is still visible to this day. Similar events had taken place in western countries in history too and likely to recur in future too.
It is also the very reason why i think it is very important that distribution if wealth and power across the population of an administrative unit is very important for survival of that unit.
Unlike the communists , the TMC govt inherited much more positive political environment thanks to the stability provided by 34 years of communist rule and unlike the communists of early years Mamata never had any preference for village only development, infact she has developed both the villages and cities unlike ever before in history of the state, even though at the cost of ethical practices which by the way has seen a decline all over the world and is already creating social problems in many places. I think she has recognised it too and probably is willing to take corrective measures against her party members and govt. officials. But she is having to fight with an even uglier demon in form of hindutva politicians.
But well she will win this round too.
Very uneducative video. It totally misses on many points such as how west bengal focuses more on msmes than big name companies. And the government does that because the government wants to uplift and create many big companies of the future all having roots from bengal. What Bengal thinks today India thinks tomorrow remember this.
This up and Bihari will show negative about kolkata
