Bangladesh and the Indian state of West Bengal share many characteristics, including a common language, fertile land, abundant rainfall, year-round warmth, and a dense population. This book examines the progress made in crucial economic sectors that have paved the way for the development of Bangladesh and West Bengal. The book begins by describing how Bangladesh is moving toward achieving the status of a middle-income nation, and how West Bengal seems to have fallen into the trap of developmental experiments with different political ideologies over time. The book then compares the trajectory of development in various economic sectors of the two economies. In doing so, it covers social development, education, health care, food habits, cinema and theatre, and the entrepreneurship of both entities. The chapters take an empirical and descriptive approach to address various issues, analyse results, draw conclusions, and make policy suggestions.
Land of Two Rivers chronicles the story of one of the most fascinating and influential regions in the Indian subcontinent. The confluence of two major river systems, Ganga and Brahmaputra, created the delta of Bengal--an ancient land known as a center of trade, learning and the arts from the days of the Mahabharata and through the ancient dynasties. During the medieval era, this eventful journey saw the rise of Muslim dynasties which brought into being a unique culture, quite distinct from that of northern India. The colonial conquest in the eighteenth century opened the modern chapter of Bengal's history and transformed the social and economic structure of the region. Nitish Sengupta traces the formation of Bengali identity through the Bengal Renaissance, the growth of nationalist politics and the complex web of events that eventually led to the partition of the region in 1947, analyzing why, despite centuries of shared history and culture, the Bengalis finally divided along communal lines. The struggle of East Pakistan to free itself from West Pakistan's dominance is vividly described, documenting the economic exploitation and cultural oppression of the Bengali people. Ultimately, under the leadership of Bangabandhu Mujibur Rahman, East Pakistan became the independent nation of Bangladesh in 1971. Land of Two Rivers is a scholarly yet extremely accessible account of the development of Bengal, sketching the eventful and turbulent history of this ancient civilization, rich in scope as well as in influence.

Stories From Bangladesh And West Bengal In A Unique Attempt To See How Partition Has Shaped The Narratives Of The Two Regions That Share A Common Culture And Language.
Abraham Lincoln sacrificed four million countrymen in the American Civil War to keep the country united, Mao Zedong sacrificed millions of countrymen to bring economic progress to China, and Winston Churchill sacrificed a lot of the British people during the Blitz by Hitler of Nazi-Germany to save the country from a fall like France, but Gandhi destroyed the country by causing human slaughter of Indians by dividing Indians as Hindu and Muslim in the name of “Non-Violence.” Nehru destroyed India using Gandhi’s “Non-Violence” and Patel who failed to prevent “Calcutta Killing,” is falsely proclaimed as the “Iron Man of India.” Lastly, according to Bertrand Russell's view, abolition of the fear of religion would lead to equality of humanity, but Gandhi's division of India, based on religion, will no longer hold good.
