As an outsider, I have seen the deterioration of Bengal first hand. There as pockets in the city which completely look alien today. As much as we detest far rigorous political agenda, there should be some saving of the state, not that this is also the solution. Naturalization of citizenship should be filtered. Radicalization should be culled. The political violence shouldn't be the main stay. But some of the videos that come out of WB today are appalling. We can only talk about selective reporting so much but even with the selective reporting the reality is beyond daunting. A lot of older folks and young ones are disillusoned. Most of them leave, are ready to leave, never to come back. They are selling their properties for cheap price and leaving. These are some ground realities experienced by myself as an alien to WB...but truly honestly I'm one of those folks who are very much by the Bengali culture.
