Improvement Project of Science Construction CS

Abstract Science Construction’s business is in planning, developing and building road projects. The major of its clients are municipalities, city governments, and other public sector entities. While the bankruptcy rates for these clients is very low, when economic downturns happen, their ability to pay in a timely fashion also suffers. This leads to businesses such as Science Construction needing to take on additional debt and to find creative methods in order to stay afloat during times of recession. Methods such as selling accounts receivables at discounted rates and taking larger lines of credit through banks and other lending institutions are some of the ways organizations can remain viable when their cash inflows have turned into a trickle. Science Construction is asking the Turkish Courts to postpone their bankruptcy proceedings for a year while they attempt to restructure. Through this, suggestions such as forcing shareholders to pay their debt to the organization, gaining credi

Jyoti Basu.....The Great Son of Bengal



I don't remember the exact date, but probably it was in the month of August 1991. I was attached as a free lancer to a least know weekly “ The Democratic Forum” ; my fancy to give a try to my journalistic flair was the sole motive with that association. My editor, Late Mr M.L. Shah was the person who was encouraging me. That day he came to my office and asked if I was free in the evening. Fortunately I was and asked him back the reason. He said Mr Jyoti Basu would give a press conference at the press club, Kolkata and if I wish I could attend that. It was a pleasant surprise ; so I readily agreed.

In the evening Mr, B.L. Shah of “Dainik Rooplekha” , a Hindi daily from the same stable of my weekly, fetched me from my office to the press club. We were early birds, outside the club , on the lawn people were sitting making circles and chatting with each other. I felt a fish out of water, as none knew me and so I. Turning to my companion, I found he was enjoying my discomfort! He winked at me, took me to a corner and handed out a glass spilling with whiskey! I gulped it within no time and felt better, more at home in that unknown joint.

At last our wait was over, the secretary of press club came out to call us to take our sit within the club as the CM, Jyoti Basu was expected at any moment. We entered, took our seat at the back. In came the CM, Late Mr Jyoti Basu, that was the first time I saw him so closed. He was 78 then, still looked quite healthy and so sharp in his reaction while answering the questions thrown from our side was really amazing! The press secretary was selective allowing the reporters one by one to ask question to him; I too raised my hands just to ask “ Sir at this age, how long you think to continue to lead the state” but not allowed. Though disappointed then later I knew the answer ; it must have been “ …......as long the party wants me to continue”.

The great son of Bengal, at last departed without caring for the approval of his party!
Well his departure reminds me that not so close meeting where I could not salute him; now I salute his soul.

Hello!Badu,
Your short script about JB is as good as all previous ones.I liked it, though to my mind,I think,we Bengalees generally get vocal after the demise of any person. Yes,I do really admire JB, for a few works done at his time, but I know many, repeat many,wrong things done, and wrong steps taken, by him, which as a result, are responsible for creating different present day problems.
How ever, please don't mind, I think your above writing has a back effect of the glass full of liquid, the editor offered you that evening---ha ha ha ha.
Hope you are doing well along with your family.Wish you and your family,all the best.
Bhalo theko.

CHITTARANJAN IN 50s

Hi, Everybody, sometime some of you keep me asking about my days and time at Chittaranjan. This is natural, after all there are gaps of decades between most of you and me ! This has prompted me with an idea of writing this to share my old good days with those of you who are interested. Indian Railway under the British colonial rule was another group of companies with different British Managements. Since the different railway networks under all of them were used mutually for their own benefits. At places, different railway companies had the facilities of repairing and maintenance of their locomotives and passenger and goods carriages. To name a few, like Anda, Adra, Howrah, Liluah, Mughal sarai, Jhajha , these are they places I mention since they are quite closed by our loving Chittaranjan. The locomotives were imported from Manchester, England and few from Canada and Australia , all under the Union Jack. A good number of railway operational staffs were anglo Indians,
