Jyoti Basu reminded me of the actor Chobi Biswas in Ray's film Jalsaghar. Very aristrocratic but totally out of syc with time.
He is a good candidate for Bharat Ratna. Led WB for almost 25 years and ensured two things: 1)A jungle raj is established in WB 2)Chandan Basu, his son, prosper and amass tons of wealth
