Крім того, розглядається можливість надання аеропорту міжнародного статусу через його стратегічне розташування між кордонами з Бангладеш, Бутаном, Непалом і КНР. Також в аеропорті базується 20 ескадрилья Повітряних сил Індії, озброєні винищувачами МіГ-21 і гелікоптерами (ще одна гелікоптерна база розташована за 15 км, в Севоке).

Неподалік від бази знаходиться база Індійської армії. Посилання Civil Aerodrome Bagdogra Airports Authority of India
St. Xavier's University, Kolkata

St. Xavier's University Kolkata is a Jesuit university located in New Town, Kolkata, India. It was established in February 2017 and inaugurated in July of the same year. Although run by the same Jesuit community which administers St. Xavier's College, Kolkata, the college, established in 1860, is independent of and not affiliated to St. Xavier's University, Kolkata, but instead functions autonomously within the University of Calcutta. History In 2011, the St. Xavier's College, Kolkata Alumni Association under its president, Father John Felix Raj, the principal of the college, devised Vision 2020, a ten-year plan which included the founding of St. Xavier's University, Kolkata. In 2012, the Chief Minister of West Bengal, Mamata Banerjee invited St. Xavier's College to open a university. Land was purchased from the government in 2013 and the foundation stone was laid by Mamata Banerjee in December that year. The West Bengal Legislative Assembly unanimously passed the St. Xavier's University, Kolkata Act 2016 on 15 December 2016 and the Governor gave his assent to the Act on 16 January 2017. The State University of New Town Kolkata (SXUK) was established in February 2017 by the West Bengal government and formally inaugurated in July 2017 by Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and Lakshmi Mittal, the CEO of ArcelorMittal. The same month, Father Felix Raj took charge of the university as its first vice-chancellor. By the St. Xavier's University, Kolkata, Act 2016 of the Bengal Assembly, the university may have constituent Jesuit Colleges situated in West Bengal. St. Xavier's College Kolkata Educational Trust is the sponsoring Trust of the university, with the Jesuit provincial as its president and Father Raj as secretary. Also established were the governing board, executive council, academic council, faculty councils, boards of studies and finance committee. Controversy A female professor at St. Xavier's University Kolkata was allegedly forced to resign after sharing personal photos on social media. The university reportedly demanded a financial penalty of ₹99 crores. According to the professor, "The vice-chancellor John Felix Raj said this parent had found his son looking at my photographs on Instagram where I was wearing just my undergarments. He said they were sexually explicit and requested the university to save his son from such vulgarity." The professor explained that the photos were posted on 13 June 2021, prior to her joining the university faculty and before she accepted any requests from her students to follow her account which is private. She took the photos as selfies and posted them as an Instagram story which disappeared after 24 hours, so she accused the university panel of gaslighting her. In July 2023, the Supreme Court of India refused to hear the case due to lacking paperwork. See also St. Xavier's College, Kolkata List of Jesuit sites References External links Official website

Curzon Gate, Bardhaman

The Curzon Gate, also known as the Bijay Toran, is a prominent landmark in Bardhaman city in Purba Bardhaman district in West Bengal, India. It is located at the crossing of Bijoy Chand Road and Grand Trunk Road. History It was built in 1902/1903, on the occasion of the coronation of Maharaja Bijay Chand Mahatab as ruler of the Bardhaman Raj. The gate is located on the Grand Trunk Road. The former royal palace is located 1 km from the gate. The pomp and grandeur of Lord Curzon’s visit to Bardhaman in 1904 established the name of the gate as Curzon Gate. The gate arch is supported by eight circular columns. Three female figurines, with swords, boats, and sheaves of corn in their hands, on the arch signify progress in agriculture and commerce. There are twenty-one circles with twenty-one illustrations at the top portion of the gate. Due to presence of stars in the gate it was initially named 'Star Of India' when it was built. The structure was constructed by masons from Italy. After the Bardhaman Raj was incorporated into the newly independent India, the gate was referred to as Bijoy Toran, but it is still popularly known as Curzon Gate. Since 1974, the gate has been maintained by the Public Works Department of the Government of West Bengal. References
Mahakaran metro station

Mahakaran (also known as New Mahakaran) (both names are officially correct), is a metro station on Green Line of Kolkata Metro, located in B.B.D. Bagh. There are many British heritage buildings near the station with the Lal Dighi adjoining it. The tracks leaving the station towards Howrah go underneath the Hooghly River through the biggest underwater metro tunnel of India. The station was completed and opened on 6 March 2024. The station, though comparing without platform screen doors, may look similar to any Blue Line underground station, but it is actually very different as it is designed with world class facilities and murals that pay tribute to the locality and Indian freedom fighters. The nearest railway station is B.B.D. Bagh railway station. Just before the tunnel enters the underwater segment, lies a ventilation shaft on the Kolkata bank of Hooghly River, which is the deepest of its kind in India, at 44 metres (144 ft) below ground level.

Institut indien de management de Calcutta

L'Institut indien de management de Calcutta est l'une des treize écoles à porter l'appellation Indian Institutes of Management (IIM). Elle compte parmi les meilleures écoles de commerce d'Asie. Histoire Dans les années 1950, l'Inde a connu une croissance rapide et il est devenu difficile de trouver des directeurs compétents pour les entreprises publiques créées dans le cadre de la politique industrielle. Pour résoudre ce problème, le gouvernement invite le professeur George Robbins de UCLA afin d'aider à la mise en place d'écoles de management. Suivant ses recommandations, le gouvernement indien décide de créer des écoles de commerces baptisées Indian Institute of Management. L'Indian Institute of Management de Calcutta fut le premier à être créé, le 13 novembre 1961, en collaboration avec le Massachusetts Institute of Technology, le gouvernement du Bengale-Occidentale et la fondation Ford. Lors de ses premières années, d'éminents professeurs ont participé au développement de l'école, parmi lesquels Paul Samuelson, Jagdish Sheth, J K Sengupta, Peter S King et Thomas Hill. L'institut compte parmi ses anciens élèves Indra Nooyi et Meena Ganesh. Académique IIM-C est considéré comme l'une des trois meilleures écoles de commerce d'Inde et est particulièrement réputé pour ses cours de finance. Il compte aussi parmi les meilleures écoles de commerce d'Asie. IIM-C est la seule école d'Inde à délivrer le master du CEMS, troisième meilleure master en management au monde d'après le classement du Financial Times. Campus Le campus, dont la première pierre a été posée par Morarji Desai, est situé à Joka, à la sortie sud de Kolkata. Il est composé de bâtiments académiques, d'un auditorium, d'un centre de recherche en finance, d'un laboratoire en trading, d'un centre de management des ressources humaines ainsi que de la plus grande bibliothèque en management d'Asie. De nombreuses associations étudiantes rythment la vie de l'école. On compte entre autres un club de conseil, de finance, de sports extrêmes, de musique, de danse, de théâtre et de cinéma. Intaglio Depuis 1992, IIM Calcutta organise chaque année le sommet Intaglio, qui, durant trois jours offre des discussions et conférences d'importants industriels, académiciens et hommes politiques. Des universités du monde entier participent aux concours et simulations qui ont lieu lors de l'événement. C'est le cas de la Harvard Business School, du MIT Sloan et de la Wharton School.
