Può sembrare troppo caotico per poter vedere Calcutta in 3 giorni ma grazie alla nostra guida sarete in grado di vederlo perfettamente in una breve fuga. Cosa vedere a Calcutta in 3 giorni? È la terza area metropolitana più produttiva dell'India, dopo Mumbai e Delhi. Si chiama anche la Città della Gioia. Consigli per visitare Calcutta Il trasporto tradizionale di Calcutta è il risciò, ma attualmente è stato parzialmente vietato dal governo. Oggi vengono utilizzati più taxi e minibus per spostarsi in città. Ha un aeroporto internazionale. Gastronomia a Calcutta La maggior parte del cibo indiano ha sapori e aromi forti. Nei ristoranti troverete cucina del nord e del sud dell'India, cucina tailandese, cinese, tibetana e persino anglo-indiana come l'India è stata per lungo tempo una colonia britannica. Un alimento tipico è il macher jhol, è pesce con curry e riso o pesce marinato con senape e cotto a vapore.

  • City Disaster Management Plan of Kolkata
    CITY DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN OF KOLKATA 2020 KOLKATA MUNICIPAL CORPORATION 5, S.N. BANERJEE ROAD, KOLKATA - 13 Foreword Cities are important centres of modern societies that will continue to gain in importance in the future. Today, more than half the world’s population lives in urban areas. The high density and interdependence of urban lifestyles and work, and the growing dependence on increasingly complex infrastructure systems and services, are making cities more vulnerable to a variety of hazards — natural and man-made. These can be the result of technological, natural or social causes. The populous City of Kolkata is situated in the multi-hazard prone southern part of the state of West Bengal which has considerable risk of damage/loss of lives and property due to natural hazards like Cyclone, Earthquake and Flood even if we keep aside the threats due to human induced hazards as Fire, Accidents, Industrial & Chemical hazards etc. To minimize the losses due to disasters and to have a disaster resilient society, we must have clear understanding in regard to the type and strength of each of the probable threats which may cause disasters of medium or large scale in the city. The perception about disaster and its management has undergone a change following the enactment of the Disaster Management Act, 2005. The definition of disaster is now all encompassing that includes not only the events emerging from natural and man-made causes, but even those events which are caused by accident or negligence. There was a long felt need to capture information about all such events occurring across the sectors and efforts made to mitigate them in the city and to collate them at one place in a global perspective.
