TOLLYGUNGE METRO RAIL TRACKS NEED TO BE EXTENDED TILL IIM THAKURPUKUR COLLEGE

Rakhal: - Arrey, o Gutke daa, where are you going? Come and sit here. Let us have a glass of tea.

Chutke: - Haan Gutke daa, let us have a glass of tea, then I will also go to the market to buy vegetables. Onek din holo tumi ei chayer dokaaney esey adda maroni amader sathey. Choley eso. Ei, Nelo, Gutke daa key bostey deh. Boso Gutke daa. Ei, Pocha, prepare 4 glasses of tea for 4 of us.

Gutke: - This time, Kolkata is shivering. It is so cold this year. In 2010, the temperature of Kolkata may dip below 10 degrees Celsius. Without taking hot tea, it is very difficult for us to beat the cold. Tarpor, aar ki khabor dabor?

Nelo: - Arrey, Gutke daa, aajker latest news hocchey, as usual, sei Mamata Banerjee. Satyi Gutke daa, I think that CPI (M) will surely lose the 2011 Assembly Election.

Gutke: - Delhi bahut door hai, Nelo. It is now 2010 only. Just wait and watch; how CPI (M) will bring development in 2010 in Kolkata as well as in West Bengal to retain its own power.

Rakhal:- accha, the party which failed to do any development for 30 years in West Bengal, will do it in 1 year. Look at our TMC Supremo Mamata Banerjee. As a Rail Minister, he has given 6 new trains from Howrah. Not only have that, from today only, the work for the Dumdum Metro Railways extension till Dakhineswar will start. The platforms will be named after Swami Vivekananda and Maa Sarada also.

Gutke: - You people are from which locality? Are you people residing at Dakhineswar?

Chutke: - No, we are residing in Thakurpukur area. You are also residing in our area only. But, we can now easily reach Dakhineswar in a very short time.

Gutke: - Then let me tell you very clearly that when the first plan of Metro Rail was made, then it was planned from Thakurpukur to Dakhineswar. Then, someone played some lobbies and Thakurpukur area was omitted from the plan. The Metro Railway track got constructed from Tollygunge to Dumdum.

Nelo: - aah, maybe, at that time, the State Government was not having so much money to extend that Metro Rail till Thakurpukur. The State Government still regards Thakurpukur as a part of South 24 Parganas, but not of Kolkata city.

Gutke: - accha, can you ignore the IIM College, Joka Tram Depot and the Thakurpukur Cancer Hospital? Since British rule, Thakurpukur is a part of Kolkata only, but this area has always been neglected. In comparison to Behala and Barisha area also, not a significant development have taken place in Thakurpukur area. Garia was never a part of Kolkata. Barrackpore was never a part of Kolkata, Dakhineswar is outside Kolkata only, even this SaltLake city and Rajarhat are in North 24 Parganas, they were not in proper Kolkata. If those places can have Metro Rails, then why not in Thakurpukur?

Pocha: - Ei naao tomader cha. Accha, Gutke daa, you are getting too much excited, I think. Now, if there is no Metro Rail in Thakurpukur, then it is for your CPI (M) party and due to the goons of Kabardanga areas. In 2005 only, the state government tried to extend Tollygunge Metro Rail both in Garia and Thakurpukur line. But, these goons as well as the owners of Bus No. 40B requested and bribed the Metro Rail authorities.

Gutke: - Just forget 2005. Now, Mamata Banerjee is the Rail Minister. It is the right time for her to sanction the plan of Tollygunge Metro rail extension till Thakurpukur IIM College. Joka is under Thakurpukur area only. Try to understand its future impact. A person of Diamond Harbour can easily reach Dakhineswar within 1.5 hours. Not only have that, a student of IIM Thakurpukur can easily reach Dumdum airport, without any hassles. TMC gets more votes from Thakurpukur area, than from Garia and Dakhineswar areas, but still Mamata Banerjee has done nothing for this area. You people should better vote for CPI (M) from this Thakurpukur area.

Pocha: - Hey, you are sitting on the bench kept outside my shop, but you have not ordered for tea. Will you take a glass of tea?

Arindam: - Arrey, I am just waiting for Bus No. 12D. Ok, give me a glass of tea. After all; I am also enjoying their discussions, he he he…

Rakhal: - Gutke daa, you are absolutely right. We will not vote for TMC in Assembly Election of 2011 from this Thakurpukur area, if Mamata Banerjee does not sanction the plan within 2010; “TOLLYGUNGE METRO RAIL TRACKS NEED TO BE EXTENDED TILL THAKURPUKUR IIM COLLEGE”.
