Chittagong vs Kolkata

[Species]

Container handling of Kolkata port is 1/3 of Chittagong port, seriously? And they constructed Farakka barrage, drying out dozens of rivers and jeopardizing the lives of millions just for this useless Kolkata port?

This is why they are called Incredible Indians.

It is not a major container port-JNPT (New Mumbai) is

That's looks like a substandard road

I guess Bhubaneswar is better than Chittagong @gslv

And still they constructed the Farakka barrage, why? Was it mentioned in a Vedic inscription?

There are other commodities handled there .

Can you stop dragging Hinduism into everything ? I am an Indian christian,and I deplore your mocking of other religious beliefs

For example...? As far as I know, the main objective to construct the Farakka barrage was to ensure smooth flow of rivers to the harbor Kolkata to prevent siltation. But it looks like Kolkata port is dying anyway.

I'm not dragging Hinduism. Considering the recent history of India, Indians take the Vedic books quite seriously for which they even demolished several heritage sites. Since, I couldn't find any credible reason behind the Farakka barrage so I thought there might be some directions in the Vedic inscriptions to construct it.

For example...?

bulk goods..coal,ores,fertilizers

To transport bulk goods, normal people build bridges/highways not barrages, don't know about the Vedic people though...

I've no idea what you're talking about. It is to prevent sediment deposition at Hoogly,so that ships with a deeper draft can dock on both the port systems - Kolkata & Haldia

don't know about the Vedic world though...

We don't need engineering consultancy from 'lungi world'.

Well, that's what I said previously but you argued there are other bulk goods handled there or something... don't know what. Point is, the project failed from its objective since Kolkata is a dying sea port anyway.

Dhoti world then?

Are you dumb ? Containers were never the major commodity handled at Kolkata anyway - Its bulk goods,oil etc

Dhoti world then?

Dhoti world is far better than lungi desh

Chittagong is the only major port of Bangladesh, Kolkata is one of the many ports of India.

I didn't see anyone dying cause of the Farakka Barrage, infact if anything it has helped a great deal with the flood control in the region.
