Anuradha visits the poet’s house in Kolkata and is reminded of her visit to Statford upon Avon.

Now what you would not really appreciate is all the filth and dirt that surrounds the house. You have to cross several drain like lanes to reach the house. When I was coming out, it reminded me of my visit to ‘Stratford upon Avon’, which is Shakespeare’s village and the way they have preserved it. They even have a Tagore statue inside his house. The way they maintain the whole town and make all the information available to the visitors is amazing. I wonder why we can not even keep the places of heritage value, at least clean, so that they are at least not
repulsive for the visitors.
