I had the opportunity to tour cambodia and visit ankor Wat Temple complex, possibly the largest Hindu temple complex in the world in 2019. There I have often come across wrong interpretation of Hinduism. The wrong interpretations were there in Museums, delivered by tourist guides,etc. But most of these, I now realise was from ignorance, false narrative of western authors and historians on their colonies. I was also under the influence of the fact that the Swastik symbol was taken up by Adolf Hitler and when he came to power swastika became a notorious symbol.

It is often said now days among Bengalees that we are not business material, we are born to work in offices. At maximum, we are good at doing small businesses. We see that most of the businesses in Kolkata, our capital city is dominated by non-Bengalees. If you remember there were Bengalees as film producers in Bollywood not so long ago and now even the local Bengali film and television industry is financed by companies whose owners are non-Bengalees. It makes me wonder that did 34 years of continuous communist presence at government level and in the psyche of the Bengalee community in West Bengal and Tripura pushed the progressive and not so risk averse Bengalee community running after government jobs and salaried positions? lets dive into the time... Let's start by listing out Bengali producers in post Independence and try to chronologically order the reduction and disappearance from the horizon and see if a pattern appears over a period of time:- Hiralal Sen - Creative year ext

Definition:-the term Scheduled Caste is the legal and administrative term used by the British Raj in 1935 to designate for the purpose of special assistance. Those castes within the orbit of Hindu religion whose low virtual status , poverty and lack of oppertunities resulted in their social and civil disabilities.              After Independence the term has been include in the Indian constitution in a specific manner.
