    Loved this production, a good introductory piece. Would love it, if you guys could do a follow up and talk to West Bengal State Environment and/or Wetland department authorities and put to them the questions that hardly any journalist asks. All the Best!

    I actually live in the 'other' part of East Kolkata Wetlands. This is the area which was carved up from these beautiful wetlands and my neighborhood is an upscale one where the original landowners work as domestic helps or do odd jobs. It's very sad to see their plight. However, because my neighborhood is a co-operative society, we do have schools and other facilities for these children. There are still many 'bheris' (fish ponds) in my neighborhood which makes living here very different from the notorious congestion of Calcutta.
    Thank you Scroll for showing this side of the megalopolis and I hope we could do much more to save these wetlands and the livelihoods of these people.

    I'm staying in rent over here in one of the overpopulated areas of wetlands. Everyday, waterland is getting filled and bheris are converted to mass dwelling spaces. I'm learning so much more about wetlands, thanks for it. I wish we all could raise a voice against it.

    It is unfortunate that in spite of Kolkata having a population of 15 million people and India having a population of 1.4 Billion, this has a view of 7K, while a frivolous tik-tok video attracts 10s of million of views. That is the dichotomy of our existence.
