It is the principal commercial, cultural, and educational centre of East India. If Bangalore is the Seattle of India, then Kolkata is the sub-contintent's London. Kolkata continues to spawn generations of poets, writers, film producers and Nobel Prize winners. Till the 17th century, Calcutta was nothing more than a village. But, today it is one of the major metropolitan cities of India along with Delhi, Mumbai and Chennai. Abject poverty mixes inexplicably with crumbling British Raj-era gems, sprawling gardens and historical colleges. The credit for its present status goes to the expansion plans of the European powers.
