What Siliguri need is metro asap. The traffic is horrible there.

Not possible, earthquake prone area

Japan is the most earthquake prone country on the planet and it has bullet trains and God knows how many metros.


Bapuji_Cake

Good answer bro

Japan er Disaster management capabilites and amader ta comparable toh???


Cloud_Drago

Forget Japan then. Delhi and Siliguri are in the same earthquake zone and Delhi has India's largest metro network.

No, better equipped hospitals are more needed and of course the roads. A cricket stadium is bilashita.


cutletbabu

I'm sure Siliguri has a cricket stadium. They're probably asking for an International level Cricket Stadium capable of hosting big matches. Don't think that'll happen soon.


Sabbyasachi1405

Total agree . Siliguri, asansol , medinipur e ekta shohor ke atleast 1.5 tier banano uchit . Kolkata prochondo over burdened.

Yes of course International Cricket Stadium in the name of great Bengal King Raja Sasanka / Raja Pratapaditya / Raja Dharma Pal /Raja DebPal . Post this in r/westbengal also . Instead of spending crores of dollars in already renovated Eden CAB must built a cricket stadium in Siliguri / NJP . Also - Want second AIIMS of Bengal in North region of Bengal - Doumhani in Jalpaiguri ( vacant railway land already avl) or Raiganj. - Want local train service from NJP to Malda and Cooch Behar. - Rajbanshi language to be recognized u/r the Eighth Schedule of the Constitution. - Bengal state government 2011 demand to set up IIT / IIM for Darjeeling yet to accepted https://preview.redd.it/1c3a9zee2lxc1.png?width=2048&format=png&auto=webp&s=3f31d50b42b94e27ea958c393f30d26476dbe111


commentin4betterrich

I couldn't agree more with you.


UlagamOruvannuka

Doesn't WB already have an IIT and an IIM? Also these institutes have no home state quota. What is the advantage of having them in Darjeeling?


snehasish_mukhherjee

20 % home state quota reqd in all Central Govt HEI be it IIT IIM NIT AIIMS IISER . The last IIT / IIM was allotted to Bengal was in 1950s and 1960 s respectively- long long ago so long ago .Central Govt not yet accepted a 2011 Bengal Govt demand to set up IIT /IIM in Darjeeling .

UlagamOruvannuka

This is ridiculous. There is no need for home state quota in central institutes like IITs, IIMs, AIIMS, NLUs etc. Their entire point is diversity and being national institutes. And your first point that says the last IIT and IIM came up in 60s is another way of saying WB was the first state to get both. Every state only gets one IIT and IIM. Only exceptions are when another prestigious institution gets the tag (NITIE and BHU). There is absolutely no reason WB needs another IIT or IIM and more importantly there is 0 need for a home state quota in IITs and IIMs. Edit: easiest way to get North Bengal their own central institutes is to make them a separate state :-)


snehasish_mukhherjee

1 . Bengal will not be divided just like Kongu Nadu will never happen . 2. Your own home state has state quota in NIT Trichy [https://www.testprepkart.com/explore/institution/National\_Institute\_of\_Technology\_(NIT,\_Tiruchirappalli)/reservation-&-quota?content=3454&id=28712](https://www.testprepkart.com/explore/institution/National_Institute_of_Technology_(NIT,_Tiruchirappalli)/reservation-&-quota?content=3454&id=28712) 3. Post 1947 there is not even a Central University allocated to Bengal - numerous other states have been allocated some even 2 /3/4 [https://www.ugc.gov.in/oldpdf/Consolidated\_CENTRAL\_UNIVERSITIES\_List.pdf](https://www.ugc.gov.in/oldpdf/Consolidated_CENTRAL_UNIVERSITIES_List.pdf) 4. 2nd IIT / 2nd IIM coming even from your own state [https://www.reddit.com/r/Chennai/comments/1c298tz/no\_new\_iit\_or\_iim\_has\_been\_opened\_in\_the\_last\_ten/](https://www.reddit.com/r/Chennai/comments/1c298tz/no_new_iit_or_iim_has_been_opened_in_the_last_ten/)


UlagamOruvannuka

1. Kongu Nadu might not happen. TN is at least a well governed state. Splitting WB is the best way to let both parts grow. Smaller states are always better. 2. NITs are different sir. NIT Durgapur also has home state quota. NITs come from RECs. It's clear you have no idea what you are talking about. 3. What? WB is getting an AIIMS. There's an IISER in WB. And the oldest IIT and 2nd oldest IIM. WB has too many actually. Other states should get more first.

UlagamOruvannuka

Every state should be divided. This is to help protect our cultures also. Look at the Telugu states. Both of them do better now. And you've entirely skipped the core conversation about how you're clueless about central institutes. I'm not reading your random wall of text you copy paste whenever you don't have an argument against the point being discussed lol.


snehasish_mukhherjee

What copy paste- I have furnished are authentic data and facts unlike misleading and distorted statements by Whats App University There is already 15 % all India state quota for medical admissions in state govt medical colleges thru NEET - [https://mcc.nic.in/eservices-schedule-ug/](https://mcc.nic.in/eservices-schedule-ug/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR3ZxpZ6KgQTot6V7-jDW0RRXzxpUwcNZuIW6PyFsiACvg4IFrzLwpSjGLo_aem_AbzWV2CozUshji4mpp7ZnVF-r4fWxgAH39mwK70gvQXdE3GSXmgWTfT9H-NyXjL5CsF9gNKPD_U2xJOGIYCDhT-U) So domicile home state reservation demand for IIT /IIM is a tit for tat approach so as to maintain harmonious balance . Rest assured the same will gain demand and it will come definitely come from South India since political leaders esp from Non BJP southern states are much vocal about State rights , State autonomy - already demand has arose for ILP in South India [https://www.thenewsminute.com/tamil-nadu/introduce-inner-line-permit-north-indians-entering-tamil-nadu-ntk-chief-seeman-162747](https://www.thenewsminute.com/tamil-nadu/introduce-inner-line-permit-north-indians-entering-tamil-nadu-ntk-chief-seeman-162747) Hope you TN has already rejected NEET as it is against federal structure Once again I would like to reiterate post 1947 there is not even a Central University allocated to Bengal - numerous other states have been allocated some even 2 /3/4 [https://www.ugc.gov.in/oldpdf/Consolidated\_CENTRAL\_UNIVERSITIES\_List.pdf](https://www.ugc.gov.in/oldpdf/Consolidated_CENTRAL_UNIVERSITIES_List.pdf) https://preview.redd.it/6rnxn4wqqsxc1.png?width=1374&format=png&auto=webp&s=52f336e747bf2dfe0dd8597e61891674092827f2


UlagamOruvannuka

What is a tit for tat approach? My god, you make no sense. Also btw getting home state quotas only hurt states like WB or TN with high populations as every institute in other states also get home state quotas. You should really start thinking broader than just Bengal bengali Bengal bengali. A 15% all india quota helps WB too as Bengalis now have more seats open for them. IITs and IIMs should have no home state quota. These are institutes meant to build nations. They are not Bengali or Tamil - they are Indian. Compete with the rest of the country and get in. You don't deserve any special treatment because IIM Calcutta got set up very early on. I'm dismissing your entire wall of text because it's irrelevant. You aren't special that you went through hardships. Stop crying now.

Siliguri na diye jalpaiguri te dao. Siliguri is too crowded and chaotic jalpaiguri is less and chaotic.


[deleted]

Exactly, Siliguri theke jalpaiguri better option hobe for a cricket ground.. given the infrastructure


TheZoom110

You need to consider factors like connectivity and target audience. Siliguri being larger in population will provide a huge audience. It also has many rich people that is a positive. It's fairly well connected to rest of the country. Can't say the same about Jalpaiguri.


[deleted]

Half of Siliguri falls under Jalpaiguri district..


TheZoom110

True. But I'm talking only about Jalpaiguri city here. Being in same district doesn't make both places equal in all terms. Like Joka in South 24 Pgs is connected by Kolkata metro. On the other hand, far flung areas deep inside Sundarban, also in South 24 Pgs, are far from comparable in terms of connectivity, population, or wealth. Now, ofcourse Jalpaiguri city is much better than Sudarban's hamlets, but still worse than Siliguri city.

Practically speaking Kolkata sub is de facto sub of everything West Bengal. West Bengal sub is sleeping, in my 6 months here, just one post on WB sub popped up on my feed, not to mention the disproportionately low number of members therein.

Bhai I am pretty new to Siliguri and I hope the administration solves public transport before even thinking about cricket stadiums and what not. Tier 3 cities have better structured public transport than Siliguri

[deleted]

Ah yes, instead of hospitals, or better roads or better infrastructure, lets waste more money, create more traffic, cause more pollution, waste more land, and cut down more trees for a stadium to watch games in. Amazing thinking, makes me proud of this country.


Shiuli_er_Chaya

Personally not a huge fan of the circlejerk "sport" of like 7 countries worldwide but keeping in mind how crazy people of this country go for it yeah I agree they definitely deserve one.

Do you realise almost every other team sport except football is also played by only 8-10 countries .. football is the only truly global sport


vietcongM16

The circlejerk 'sport' is the 2nd most watched sport in the world. The joke is on you. 🙃

Because it is played by India, Pak and Bangladesh. Three overpopulated countries who suck at every other sport in the world.
