When I was in the 20s & had joined IAF, I dreamt of West Bengal as a Dream Land – Shangri La with people like Tagore/Arbindo/Khudi Ram/Suchitra Sen/Baul/Tagore music/Beautiful women with big tilted eyes/Majhis in boats singing hypnotic music. All shattered by this demonic woman.

West Bengal is heading towards anarchy. its true at the same time nationwide doctors' strike is uncalled for as its poor people that are at the receiving end. WB doctors ask for safety it is their local issue why should a poor patient in other states get affected?

Destabilizing a democratically elected government can attract some dreadful sections of the IPC. But every thing is fine in politics.

Every issue be it lynching, rape and now assault on doctors, we politicise it and we forget about the issue we started fight for.

And it keeps happening again and again.

RW is using this to demean Mamta, LW is quiet about it because they can't blame BJP for it?#Savethedoctors
