I lived in Kanpur till the age of 20 and went to school HSJS/BNSD and DAV college. Then I came to London 1956. If you compare Kanpur to London you would be shockeddespite the fact that london is not very clean compared to many European capitals

mr. rohit mishra i agree with u bcoz i m also blongs 2 kanpur ek samjhdaar man hi samajh skta hai k kanpur kitna ganda shahar hai kanpur k log ne kbhi bahar ki dunia dekhi hi nhi jo kanpur k logo ko mahsoos kra ske k vaakai kanpur ek gandi city hai
-- vipin sharma on June 1, 2009 at 16:05 ET
Rohit mishra and rajesh shukla jaise logon ne he kanpur ka nam kharab kiya. kanpur log delhi mumbai aur bangalore se achhe hain, delhi me selfish aur ghamandi log rahte hai jo wakai mein kuchh nahi hain par apne ko bahut hoshiya samajhte hain. Delhi jaisa ganda shahar nahi hai koi. sirf kuchh ek places pe shopping malls aur building hone se shahar achha nahi hota. These are the people who make any city or place beautiful
-- Akhilesh Singh Gaur on May 31, 2009 at 08:07 ET

-- Rishi on May 31, 2009 at 07:08 ET

rohit,
