देश कि राजधानी में BJP के विधायक करनैल सिंह हाथों में हथोड़ा लिए एक निर्माणाधीन मदरसे को तोड़ने के लिए एक पूरी भीड़ के साथ इकट्ठा होते हैं। दीवार गिरा दी जाती है, भीड़ धार्मिक नारे लगा रही होती है, BJP विधायक मदरसे को सरकारी ज़मीन पर अवैध रूप से बना हुआ बताते हैं, वहाँ एक दाढ़ी टोपी वाले से कहते दिखते हैं कि यहाँ अब नमाज़ नहीं होगी, अब सवाल ये है कि क्या विधायक जी को ये अधिकार प्राप्त है कि वो ऐसा कर सकें?

See now how Delhi police under the direct control of Ministry of Home, Government of India is describing Bengali as " Bangladeshi" language! Bengali, our mother tongue, the language of Rabindranath Tagore and Swami Vivekananda, the language in which our National Anthem and the National Song (the latter by Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay) are written, the language in which crores of Indians speak and write, the language which is sanctified and recognised by the Constitution of India, is now described as a Bangladeshi language!! Scandalous, insulting, anti- national, unconstitutional!! This insults all Bengali-speaking people of India. They cannot use this kind of language which degrades and debases us all. We urge immediate strongest possible protests from all against the anti-Bengali Government of India who are using such anti-Constitutional language to insult and humiliate the Bengali- speaking people of India

Allow me to be a little nostalgic today. As the Railways Minister of India, I was fortunate in planning and sanctioning series of Metro Railway corridors in metropolitan Kolkata. I had drawn the blueprints, arranged the funds, initiated the works and ensured that the different ends of the city ( Joka, Garia, Airport, Sector V, etc) were connected by an intra- city Metro grid. Later, as the Chief Minister of West Bengal, I had the additional privilege of taking part in execution of the projects. From the State, I arranged free land, paved roads, arranged rehabilitation of displaced people, removed impediments, and ensured all help in the execution of projects. Our chief secretaries successively held series of coordination meeting to ensure integration of execution agencies. My planning as Railways Minister got fulfilment in my participation in execution. Expanding Metro infrastructure has been a long journey for me. Allow me some nostalgia today.
