Debunking Investment-Discrimination Claims in West Bengal | Sudipta Guha |

Описание: Contrary to popular belief, West Bengal has received significant central investment, including major infrastructure projects like the Farakka Barrage and institutions such as IIIT and ISI. Historical initiatives, including the 1970s Kolkata Metro, and recent developments in cities like Durgapur and Siliguri, reflect continued central support. However, recent political shifts have made the state more resistant to central investment, with officials rejecting claims of neglect. Projects like Sagar Port and the Holdia Expressway offer economic potential, though challenges like language barriers in education and land acquisition hurdles remain. Historical issues such as nationalization, licensing restrictions, and land reforms, along with demographic shifts from migration, continue to complicate governance and entrepreneurship in the region.
