Visited jail 8 a.m.<br />
Went to Habibpur and back: 34 miles<br />
Information<br />
At jail took the 2 petitions. Looked through the food register, inmates register. Though it was<br />
made a district jail, the staff have not yet been posted. For the “hospital”, bread and milk and<br />
biscuits are brought.<br />
Called on the District Judge as he is leaving on 1 st to join as L.R.-cum-Judicial Secy-cum-<br />
Legislative Secy of Tripura govt. he said, “I will miss you very very”! we conversed about<br />
his children’s education and I undertook to tell my friend who is teaching in RK Mission,<br />
Narendrapur to look after the son (class 10, Science stream).<br />
Earlier, T.B.Deb told me frankly how utterly corrupt …was and that he was going ahead with<br />
separation despite acute lack of WBJS officers because jobs were thus being created and he<br />
was taking money for appointments.<br />
Went to Habibpur to pick up previous departmental exam questions from Layek and see<br />
tubewells sunk. He wants leave for 3 days but ADM will not sanction till DM returns this<br />
evening.<br />
DM sent me a note through OS at night wanting to see me at 10 a.m. on 29 th .<br />
29.6.1972<br />
Work done<br />
Met DM at 10 am<br />
Went to Manikchak and back in afternoon: 42 miles.<br />
Completed paper on sericulture at 1 a.m. on 30 th<br />
Information<br />
DM handed me a guidelines paper on the district plan committee and asked me to get all the<br />
information on minimum needs and employment incentive projects in various fields by 1 st<br />
positively.<br />
Coming across Bimal Chakravarty, I took his advice on where to get the information. I’ll<br />
have to go to all 15 blocks. He is giving over charge to M.R.De who has managed to be<br />
posted from English Bazar to Old <strong>Malda</strong>, thus cutting out Das’ chances of leaving<br />
Bamangola. Chakravarty is waiting for clearance to leave from govt. Till then he will be<br />
attached to the Collectorate.<br />
Yesterday a man had come from Masalandapur village of Harischandrapur-II on the border of<br />
Kharba-II to complain about a ZP road which was made so high that they could not use it due<br />
to steep gradient. Also the canal dug due to the earth dug up was loosening foundations of<br />
many houses. The canal was linked to a nearby tank. Rains would send water rushing down it<br />
at a terrific pace and ruin the houses. ADM ignored the plea, saying the road was important<br />
and a little difficulty should be borne. But I thought it was a serious situation. The man had<br />
contacted the EOZP and engineer too, but none had gone to the spot. I wrote out a letter to<br />
BDO Kharba-II to enquire and report and will follow it up when I go there on 1 st .<br />
Layek got his leave, so to enable him to catch the Rajmahal launch at 4 pm I rushed him there<br />
in my jeep.<br />
From BDOs Manikchak, Harischandrapur-I (he had come) and Old <strong>Malda</strong> I took the details<br />
needed. Also had SOPD’s office look through statements received, but these details were not<br />
there. Intelligently, Amar Banerji, the clerk handling the plan file, rang up the relevant depts<br />
asking for the information. Through Harischandrapur-I BDO I sent advance intimation to<br />
Kharba about my needs. Will visit Sadar blocks tomorrow.
