1983 kolkata jodhpur park. A family used to live on the top floor of an apartment. They had four five rooms and three toilets. This is forty years apart. India Today writer and her family were on the ground floor. This was the time the kids went to Loreto and were traveling on a trams and bus out of jodhpur park. The Sindhi family and the punjabi family were comfortable in jodhpur park kolkata. Then came the Sikh family. This was tayaji and had two sons. Bassi uncle was related to dad s side of the story. Bassi uncle had a daughter called Preeti. She was not like the kolkata girls. She was shy and when Bassi aunty met her in a kitty party, she was married off to the army doctor Tony. Nemely they started staying in fort William. Their other hotelier son married a Hindu girl.
The story is written because in forty years nothing has changed in kolkata. Yesterday on my taxi ride via park Street I saw some extremely good looking people in uniform. Perhaps they were ias and IPS officers.What an aura they depicted. story to be continued..
