Heartiest congratulations and best of luck to Mamata Didi and her cabinet members. Nice to find three of my old friends viz. Amit Mitra, Manish Gupta and Subrata Mukkherjee holding important portfolios. Tarun Das, World Bank Consultant (Public Financial Reforms), Ministry of Finance, Bangladesh, Dhaka.
This Upendra Nath Biswas,I believe is the same gentleman about whom media reports were there of some charges relating to violation of Customs laws.He was the same fellow who handled Lalu's Chara scam, right?If he is the same fellow I am not sure he has the right credentials.We can only hope he would not prove to be an emberrassment to Mamata.

For your info U N Biswas is most upright & fearless CBI dy director and did not spare even then powerful Lalu in Chara scam..
Having communists got discredited and gone, WB hold lot of promise in the years to come. It is good that didi has chosen Mr. Amit Mitra as finance minister. Only thing she has to do is to stike a deal with formers over land acquisition. Once she succees in that investments to WB will pour as it has Metro city with good infrastructure with surplus power and plenty of water. Good luck didi, whole country is looking at you. WB's turn around is about to start just like Bihar.
Development of minorities is good but appeasing radical Islamist who support pakis & Bin Laden should be avoided.. Seikh Hasina is truely secular and mamata has to have cooperation with her govt. She has to shun the radicals...Good selection of cabinet..
given her mercurial behaviour , presently we donot have high hopes from her, yes, we are hopeful and keeping our fingurs crossed to see if she can deliver. she is ,no doubt, simple and honest. her first duty is to invite the industry and generate employment. there is no dearth of quality human resource in the state. the health of finance is also not good.that has to be made sound and robust. basic ammenities like primary education, healthcare, sanitation are also some areas to be put attention to. also bring back english in primary education.
Though Mamta is personally simple, she is intimately associated with corrupt and communal congress party which is taking away the sheen from her. Further she is indulging in votebank poitics by talking of minority development instead of talking of all round development. Some time ago she had hoardings of reading namaj. I do not have high hopes from her as her I have seen her capability as railway minister.
