Ch*tiye,most of ur bengali population wrks in BIMARU states.I hv encountered bengali migrants who had converted to even Sikhism to better adapt.During my time in Jamnagar,a whole village(Meghpar)housed bengali migrant wrkrs.They used to abuse bhadraloks & antels with no limits. https://twitter.com/GargaC/status/1248204167501344768
I had a Bengali cook who looked after us like a father. We had countless discussions on the polity in Bengal as well as in Gujarat. One thing he would rue about was the 'cut money'. He used to send money for his son's fees through money order and had to pay 10-15%.
He said WB ws still better under TMC,bt holding people @ ransom for basic shit ws still rampant.Bhadraloks live in their own delusional wrld.The poor & the sub-altern were jst photography subjects. One of the reasons why parties in power cud rule wid an iron hand in WB wid no..
