Children Play Area in DCW

Yesterday there was a "Gherao" activity in Maintenance Office of  DCW. In recent days our F. M. Office became worse than ever before. 


Though we pay handsome amount of Maintenance Bill every month, we are not aware till date in which pocket it is going. Anyone can make out a large portion of the money is not utilised.


Let me furnish some example. After repeated appeal from residents as well as security staff, F. M. office is not putting any rules and regulation in common lawn. Hence behind Kids play area Children are playing Cricket in night with hard ball. It can always lead to a danger.


If anyone visit to the Children Play Area, a small area provide by builders with some plastic toys of inferior quality. The toilet stinks, dirty and no flush working. Following are some picture of the only wash basin in that room, spoiled indoor football games, scattered toys and damaged slips. All these are reported to F. M. Office without any action for months.





We must be aggressive to make them work as expected without listening excuses. Otherwise "Gherao" them for days till they start moving. 


I shall personally talk to F. M. Office today to see if any improvement happens.

Super Diamond Nirman Limited producing a bad show

From the day of handing over of first lot Super Diamond Nirman Ltd. (SDNL) is showing a poor show till now. We acknowledge they did some good work and improved. But didn't we pay them for that?


We somehow get adjusted to be very happy when we get something. Our fully business-minded promoters and inefficient Property Management keep things pending for years. When few residents follow up or meet they come out with common excuses like:



  1. They are withdrawing or delaying some facility thinking about our long term safety :^o 
  2. They wanted to do something but some of our residents (generally who are absent in the meeting) opposed it.
  3. If we meet Property Management alone they blame Navin, similarly if we meet Navin Bharatia, he blames or promise to check with Property Management.
  4. They can't take care of some investment as maintenance bills are due. Surprisingly all defaulters are investors or their relatives.

They are very much interested about internal fights, groupism and politics among residents. In several instances they deviate from announced policy and directly promote the chaos to soften our edge against developers. 


We elected a committee in the name of DCW-SDC not only to organise cultural events but also to handle developers and taking care of amenities and maintenance. However while Cultural Events are taken care of very well other areas are neglected.


Lawn lights are not yet done, Temple work is slow, Swimming Pool plan is itself in deep water, Lake is just mini-version of black water sea!!! They are many more staring from Poor Maintenance, Mosquitoes, Insufficient Lights, Inadequate Securities and Cleaning Stuff, Dirty Lift...


Let us all be aware before it is too late, before they eat our money and maintenance charges for few years and flew away.

Remembering Durga Puja 2009

The countdown has begun for ensuing Durga Puja 2010. In this occasion let us have a quick stroll down memory lane recollecting Durga Puja 2009. It was a new experience for all in DCW while we celebrated the worship of Devi Durga, there was plenty of fun.

We remember the Mahalaya day, after we turned on the sound system announcing the ending of Pitri Paksha (literally "fortnight of the ancestors") by immortal recitation of Birendra Krishna Bhadra, slowly we started gathering in front of Tower 3 and 4. After some chit chat (and leg pulling) I along with Senpati_da, Talukdar, Bagchi, Sourav etc. went for a morning tea from Surya.

After idol came in Panchami, there were lots of activities. A group went to Kalighat to hire Dhaki including our Jagai Madhai (Bagchi & Talukdar) and Laurel Hardy (both the joint secretaries – G. S. Singh and G. P Senapati). “Dhaker tale komor nache” was associated by an initiative from Talukdar which stops Senapati_da wearing bermuda publicly.

Bagchi made the time memorable for few of us using his past association with IFB (nothing official about it), but indeed few others remember the time for a long time (out of frustration!) making it a political agenda in every community meeting.

It was a splendid cultural evening where I played in a key role in a Sruti Natak. Other participants were my wife Munmun, our neighbor (Somnath_da & Mala boudi), Mrs. Sinha (Roni’s mother) and Mrs. Chatterjee (Chirantan’s mother). It was initiated and directed by Mrs. Chatterjee.

One day there was Bhajan Sandhya, which may nit be relevant in Durga Puja, but we all enjoyed with a spirit of cosmopolitan society. Dokania_ji, Bhatter_da & Mehta_ji were really active.

Committee (lead by Somnath_da, Gouri_da and Senapati_da) put a hard effort to collect subscriptions and sponsorship and could arrange subsidized lunch on Maha Saptami, Maha Astami and Mana Nabami. I went with Ajmer Singh and Khan Khan Da (Arunmoy Khan) to collect most of the vegetables from Dhulagarh. It was a thrilling experience being driven by Ajmer Singh.

On the final day we had a gala dinner. We all enjoyed and relished the food even if there were very few who simply wasted food or had an impulsive fight over silly issues. Gala dinner were well attended (both veg and non-veg sections). Few people indeed worked round the clock. 

Wish a GRAND Durga Puja 2010 to all our fellow residents with more fun and enjoyment.

Common Interest

Dear All
First of all thanks to our existing elected committee members for their continuous effort even in an adverse situation intentionally created by some people to make the diamond city more beautiful and sitable to live in. In my opinion we all should act for the following common interests
  1. Fencing
  2. Beautification of Lake
  3. More equipment in gym and regular maintenance of the same. Recently there is no regular maintenance. Two machines (viz. walker and multigym) are not fuctioning properly.
  4. Follow up of the rest of the amenities for which we all had paid to the promoter.

Lastly I would like to appreciate the brilliant idea of our committee members to invite all interested residents to contribute for various events in puja and thanks to the residents who come forward for the same.

However I personally feel bad when I came to know some of our residents till today did not pay their subscription inspite of repeated requests by the committee members.

Bye. Happy Puja.
