Artist Kalam Patua—born into the Patua community of scroll painters and storytellers from Kalighat in #Kolkata—is one of the few remaining names associated with #Kalighat-style painting today.
Who would have thought that the self-taught exponent—credited with reviving this 19th-century art almost single-handedly—works with the Indian postal services as a postmaster and pursues his passion for painting only at night.The now-rare art of Kalighat of pre-independent Kolkata initially started with purely religious themes and later widened to include local customs, social issues, and topical events, as seen today in Kalam’s works which eloquently depict the absurdities of modern life.
Tiger Woman, by Kalam Patua. A postmaster during the day, the artist paints at night post 10pm, reinterpreting 19th century #Kalighatpaintings #KalamPatua

ममता बनर्जी बोलीं- पता होता राजनीति इतनी गंदी होगी, तो इसमें कभी नहीं आती
पश्चिम बंगाल की मुख्यमंत्री ममता बनर्जी ने एक बार फिर केंद्रीय एजेंसियों पर सवाल उठा दिए हैं। खास बात है कि प्रवर्तन निदेशालय की तरफ से मंगलवार को अभिषेक बनर्जी को समन भेजा गया है। उन्हें कोयला घोटाला मामले में पूछताछ के लिए तलब किया गया है। सीएम बनर्जी ने एजेंसियों की तरफ से मिल रहे समन को ‘खुली हिंसा’ बताया है। हाल ही में उन्होंने 2024 चुनाव को अपनी ‘आखिरी जंग’ बताया था।

12 packing tips and tricks to help you move smartly to your new home!
There are thousands of moves every day and everyone talks about only one thing - the stress and hassle of moving. Imagine yourself in the same situation - and think of yourself as a person who is said to be moving from Kalighat, West Bengal - your hometown to settle in Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh to fulfill his business needs. Never think of exercise as a simple habit, because it really isn't. So find the perfect team of packers and movers in Kalighat early so that they can guide you through the process and make your move comfortable and smooth!
Don't forget to read these tips too!
• Pack expensive, breakable items first
Don't wait for the movers to show up before you can start packing. You can start packing little by little so that the house doesn't look messy when you throw things away! Start packing home decor, antiques, pictures, dishes, fancy items and more. They are very delicate and must be handled with care. So it is better if you can pack them first.
• Create an overnight bag
Some people like to gather their essentials before moving. But often in the excitement of moving day, you can forget to pack the essentials in that bag. So you can start by packing something or other in your overnight bag each day - for example, wipes and towels first, and the rest of your toiletries on the last day before you move out.
• Keep used items that can clearly be reused
Selling reusable items is a great way to manage both moving costs and the burden of moving. You can hold a garage sale to get rid of things you don't see yourself seeing again anytime soon. Always remember that packing and moving extras that end up in the trash pile is not smart. So know this.
• A box of cleaning products should be prepared
You may be moving into your new home, but before you and your family finally settle in, you should do a thorough cleaning. Dusting and vacuuming are essential because they leave your home feeling fresh and looking great! And for that, you should pack a box of cleaning supplies that you open first after moving.
• Sit down with your moving team to discuss needs
A phone conversation with moving experts is not enough. Call them so they can go over your belongings and even discuss all the important moving issues - moving costs, labor costs, necessary luggage, necessary moving equipment, etc. You can talk to them about the best possible hiking route and anything else you want.
• More information about the services offered and their costs
You should also ask them a few questions -
How many years they have been with you, their business address, the range of services they offer and their fees. You can even discuss your doubts or concerns and also ask about their insurance coverage. Be sure to sign the contract after you have read the terms and conditions and are completely sure of the contract.
• Avoid moving extra items to your new home
Even after selling out, you still have a significant amount of items that are too old, unmanageable, damaged, etc. Don't waste your time, energy and money moving all these different things. You don't know how and when the moving costs will rise, and if you're not prepared, you'll have to struggle with your finances. So, settle for widespread confusion.
• If you can't get through, call the donation team
Do you have a bunch of gifts ready to share? It would be great if you or someone in your family could donate this load to the donation center. But if you are short on time and have a number of other tasks around you, going out at this point may seem problematic. No problem, you can just give your address to the donation agencies and they will take it from you.
• Don't buy groceries right before you move
Your moving plan should have a clear schedule of days, weeks and schedule when you will work on certain tasks. Additionally, you should have a plan for your food and groceries. Just one week before your move, you should stop buying new things, especially food and groceries. Make sure no food or nutrients go to waste. You can always choose to donate.
• Click pictures of your new home before you move
Once you've successfully moved into a new home, don't rush to rearrange things. You have time before the shipment reaches your new home. You can use this time to explore your new place and click amazing pictures. You can also make a temporary plan of your affairs so that you can guide the experts soon after they arrive.
• Keep electronic copies of moving plan, checklist, inventory
Keeping relevant documents related to the move is essential. If you have a separate document folder where you keep all your important documents - moving insurance, contract, business license, work papers, medical records, office documents, etc., you can keep your receipts, moving list, moving inventory and budget. on your station or in the cloud, because all these final documents are often needed.
• Clean your new home before you move
Professional Movers – Kalighat Movers and Packers you hire will take care of all your moving needs, but don't let them unpack and organize everything. First of all, you should clean your new home properly and then start organizing it. Ask specialists to arrange only the furniture and appliances, you can take care of the rest yourself
