YOUNG IT EXAMINER REPORTER SUBHANKAR KUNDU went back to his village during this week – it’s in West Bengal – a lengthy two day journey there by Indian Railways, a day there and two days to get back.

It makes travelling on the London Metropolitan Line (banner above includes Wembley Stadium – Ed.) seem like a very pleasant dream. As the oldest existing civilisation in the world India has seen it all.
