Close to 3000 shops and property and goods worth 200 crore has burned in last 48 hours.

We say Kolkata has modernized in last decade or so. Lot of new industries has come up, IT sectors have been booming. But do you really think that’s the case. Either they don’t have it or they don’t know how to use it.

BurraBazar has been burning for more than 48 hours now and our fire fighters don’t have the infrastructure to stop that and the biggest thing that they don’t have is intention. New technologies, equipments have come up.

Although the biggest shock was the way ruling party has taken this matter. Most of the big leaders of CPI(M) were just 4 kilometers away from the place of action but nobody bothered to visit that place. SHOCKING

And our honorable West Bengal Fire Services Minister Mr. Pratim Chatterjee says “Am I a astrologer who can say when will fire come under control.” But sir let me tell you one thing you are one of them who have been elected by and us and you are definitely answerable to every question we ask.

They had time for that fake rally, but not for the people who have elected them.

As a citizen of Kolkata I feel ashamed of not able to do anything but helplessly stand and see goods and shops burning.
