I received an SMS today that the meeting of the Board of Directors of Kolkata East West Metro is cancelled. I was supposed to fly to Delhi today evening. The meeting was supposed to be held at 10 am on 18th March at Nirman Bhavan, Delhi.
No reasons were given.
I wonder if it has something to do with the following news that appeared on the Indian Express few days ago.
