Ha.. I recollect my first trip to Kolkata- a final interview trip from Ahmedabad to Kolkata in 1987. Took a Indian Airlines bus from Dum Dum airport to Indian airlines office. Took a taxi from there to Allenby Road but got struck in traffic jam. Got down and engaged a hand pulled rickshaw who took me to Esplanade metro. Traveled by metro to Rabindra Sadan station. Then an autorickshaw to Allenby Road ! I was left tongue tied after this effort as my Hindi was no good then and Bangla basha was beyond me
Race course-er pashe mne hocche? Durgapur theke ferar samay?
Everyone missed to mention latest addition to this transport system as well as means of abatement of burning problems of unemployment among bengal youths i.e. TOTO plying and causing snarl in traffic
