Kolkata's Doi Ghat to be Revamped for Riverfront Development
Imagine a historic area called Doi Ghat in Kolkata, which was once a busy place for trading dairy products.
Now, a port in Kolkata is teaming up with a company to make Doi Ghat look better.
They want to fix it up to make it more beautiful and add modern things.
This is part of a bigger plan to make the Hooghly River area nicer.
The goal is to help tourism, get people involved, and keep the area's history alive.
SMPK Kolkata and TNS Logi-Park will redevelop 'Doi Ghat' on the Hooghly River.
The project aims to enhance Doi Ghat's heritage and modernize infrastructure.
Doi Ghat was a key landing point for dairy trade between Howrah and Kolkata.
The redevelopment is part of a broader Hooghly riverfront beautification drive.
Revamped Doi Ghat is expected to boost tourism and preserve heritage.
