Roadside clicks near Patuli Jheel Par (Lake)

Of late, Patuli Jheel Par or the lakeside and the adjacent areas of Baishnabghata Patuli Township have been beautified by the Kolkata Municipal Corporation. The area belongs to Ward no 101 of KMC, one of the erstwhile added areas under the century-old civic authority. The area has been developed in various ways, such as fixing of light posts, improvement of road condition, reduction of power outage, better water supply, improved sewerage, timely clearance of garbage and other civic amenities. Other than these activities, beautification has also been a priority and this has been done quite aptly over the past one or two years.



Now, the photographs that I have posted bear testimony to the different types of beautification endeavors performed in the area. A number of trident lights have been fixed in the area, gardens have been created with a variety of exotic natural and artificial flowers, and fountains sprinkling waters with different brilliant hues have been set up, Signposts with names and drawings of luminaries of Bengal have also been erected at different places. However, the most attractive part of the decoration has been the artwork on cement. Here you will find scenes depicting various contemporary and ancient events that will definitely attract you. Starting from the Sphinx (a mythical creature with the head of a human and the body of a lion) and Anubis (the God of the dead) of Egypt to Abhigyan Shakuntalam, the scenes are really charming for the spectators. The artist has done a tremendous job in replicating these age-old characters. I have clicked all the photos with my new Nikon Coolpix P900 ultrazoom camera. The photo album link is given below. Hope to see you soon! Bye for now.
