Tea Bazar, Sangeet Mela
In Eco Park, a tea garden has been set up.This is between gate number 3 and 4. Saplings are being tended. On a space opposite to it, we are planning to set up a "Tea Bazar" that will not only display and sell a variety of tea leaves but also serve hot and cold tea of various types. There will be displays on history of tea and various information on processes and types of tea. I will seek the help of Tea Board too. Here are two photos of a make-shift model to try it out:

Suchitra statue in wax museum

KOLKATA: Prodded by chief minister Mamata Banerjee, the Housing Infrastructure Development Corporation (Hidco) will soon start the groundwork for setting up the city's first wax museum in Rajarhat New Town. Modelled on Madame Tussauds London wax museum, the one coming up at Rajarhat will have a dozen of life-size statues. And it has almost been decided that Suchitra Sen will find a prominent place in the exclusive gallery.
After Suchitra's demise on Friday, the government had announced its decision to rename Ballygunge Phari as Suchitra Sen Square and also proposed to rename Ballygunge Circular Road after her.
Recently, the chief minister had laid the foundation stone for the museum that will come up on around 5,000-sq ft of area on the sixth floor of the Finance Centre Building opposite Eco Park. "Inspired by Madame Tussauds, we are creating our own to allow photo opportunity to visitors," Mamata had posted on her Facebook account recently.
Hidco authorities confirmed that the wax museum will be opened to the public by this year-end. "We intend to complete work by this Puja," said Hidco chairman-cum-managing director Debashis Sen.
The museum will have both famous personalities from all fields. The authorities will be inviting sculptors and artists for coming up with life-size statues of luminaries.
