The story ‘Dirtiest since 1889’ published in The Telegraph Howrah issue dated November 22, 2013 is a good read. Information on the first elected vice-chairman of Howrah Municipality Board, Babu Kedarnath Bhattacharya, was useful.

I am related to him and I and my family members are very proud to be part of Babu Kedarnath Bhattacharya’s legacy. There was no detailed information on our great grand father. The painting of Babu Kedarnath Bhattacharya is by Late Jitendranath Nag, a student of the renowned artist, Ramkinkar Beij. He was also the art teacher of Kedarnath Institution. I send my heartiest congratulations to The Telegraph Howrah team for publishing the article.
