Knowledge City

Last Wednesday,on 20th May, I had a meeting with Chairman Kolkata Port Trust. This was about exploring how best to use riverside land in the mutual interests of State and Central Governments. Based on a letter written some time back by Sam Pitroda, this meeting was to explore if a knowledge city could be set up on the banks of Hoogly. For this, of course, it is first necessary to have a survey of the area. It was learnt that KoPT has already instituted a study by Jadavpur University to make a land use planning. It was opined by Chairman KoPT Mr Raj Pal Singh Kahlon that further steps forward could be taken after the planning exercise is completed.
