Hopefully this incident does not happen again in the Bengal History

In the 1970s, one incident changed Bengal’s economic destiny.

Industrialist **Aditya Birla** was publicly humiliated in central Kolkata — dragged from his car near the GPO & RBI, assaulted, and stripped to his undergarments in front of a hostile crowd.

He took the next flight to **Mumbai** and never returned to Calcutta. Over the next five decades, his group grew into a **$44+ billion global empire** across 41 countries, while West Bengal lost its status as India’s industrial capital.

Today, the Aditya Birla Group runs **340+ plants**, employs **2.27+ lakh people**, and controls giants like **UltraTech, Hindalco, Vodafone Idea, and Birla Opus** — all headquartered outside Bengal. [craft](https://craft.co/aditya-birla-group/locations)

What the state missed:
- Corporate HQs & high‑skill jobs
- Large investments & ancillary industries
- Investor confidence & infrastructure growth
- A stronger private ecosystem for youth & startups

The image tells the story: 1970s Kolkata on one side, modern Mumbai on the other, and a broken bridge in between — symbolizing what Bengal lost when its own industrial champion left.

Happy Environment Day! 🌱
Let’s make our surroundings cleaner and greener by planting more trees, protecting existing greenery, reducing plastic use, and encouraging public transport and cycling to cut pollution. Small daily steps can create a healthier future for everyone.

My suggestion: every locality should start a green drive with tree planting, waste segregation, and regular cleanliness awareness so we can reduce pollution and improve air quality.
