KANPUR IS A BEST CITY, BUT THE BIG PROBLEM FOR ELECTRICITY & POLLUTION.

WE MUST PUSH OUR STATE GOVERNMENT TO DO NEEDFUL. SO OUR BUSINESS ALSO CAN ACHIEVE TARGET.


BEST REGARDS TO ALL MY NATIVE CITY, I AM IN ABROAD SINCE 15 YEARS, BUT I MISS MY CITY, MY FRIENDS, SPECIALLY MY GRADUATE FRIENDS, WHO WERE WITH ME IN P.P.N. DEGREE COLLAGE IN 1993.

I Love Kanpur Because all type people live in this city..... You can say KANPUR IS THE BEST.
-- Govind Tiwari on December 14, 2009 at 23:21 ET
OK Kanupr is great ... I say that becasue I was born there, I have family there, I have been there (many times) and I have some fun there.

But does that mean I cannot tell the truth?

I have studied the history of Kanpur and INDIA all my life. Yes it was once the Manchester of India - only becasue the British used its resources and climate to cultivate the cotton industry and ruthlessly exploited its already established cottage industries.

Trust me - brothers and sisters - Kanpur is no longer what it used to be.

The truth is that Kanpur is a very CORRUPT, CORRUPT, CORRUPT City - and all its problems emanate from this curse.

Sort out this menance and the hard-working and passionate people of Kanpur - and indeed INDIA - can once again becone what they used to be ... the richest country in the world.

In case you're wondering ... I now live in Manchester England.

KICK OUT CORRUPTION

City acquires a new name - 'Kand-pur'

The Industrial City has now acquired the dubious distinction of being a city with a new name --`Kand-pur' instead of Kanpur taking in consideration the occurrence of crime every minute.
-- Ritesh on November 13, 2009 at 12:00 ET
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 November 13, 2009 at 04:54 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 November 13, 2009 at 04:52 ET
Mr rohit mishra have you belongs to kanpur,No then don't comment on our city.If u belongs to kanpur then do something needful for the city..
-- Rishi on November 12, 2009 at 13:15 ET
rohit,
it's really amazing how you criticise kanpur.
plz do tell us what effort have U put in to help improve any city,leave alone kanpur.
least you can do is keep your disgusting comments to yourself.
we live here and love the city,its home for us and homes don't need to be showrooms!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

kanpur mein thand pad gayi hai kya
-- amit on November 9, 2009 at 03:38 ET
The comment made by Null on October 20, 2009 at 14:45 ET regarding one of Kanpur's respectable family is completely baseless. Such allegations are made to malign the family's reputation by person's of vested interests trying to harm all parties.

I would request you to kindly remove that comment from your website as it severely damages the reputation of the concerned parties and also their business establishment.

It also adversely affects the the other party as they are framed for posting such messages although they have no role in it.

You have no provision to report such abuse in your website which is very disappointing. Your email addresses all bounce back.

I hope you will do the needful at the earliest.

Mujhe samajh mein nahi ata hai ki log kya chate hai aur jo kuch bhi chayiye vo sab kuch toh hai yaha kis chiz ki kami hai .

jo log kehte hai ki kanpur mein kami hai sach toh yeh hai ki kami un me hai.

I am a MBA student of last year and i am very happy to be here and i feel proud to be a Kanpuriyan.

mr. vinod katyar u r the best kanpurite. kanpur jaisi city koi nahi ho sakti. kanpur aisa shahar hai jaha gareeb ho ya ameer sabka gujara acche se ho sakta hai
-- shashi on October 28, 2009 at 10:28 ET
Kanpur is really the worst city to live in. Its a labour class city where U dont find any development. No place to enjoy,..only Arya Nagar or Naveen Market, where U always find uneducated and slumdogs. No Disc, no pubs, every tom, dick and harry has some kind of netagiri. The only thing good about Kanpur is IIT............

HI I AM RAJAT KUMAR PAWN I STUDIED IN HSJS INTER COLLEGE KANPUR IN 1977-1981 I LOVE MY COLLEGE VERY MUCH AND I REMEMBER MY SCIENCE TEACHER SHRI S N LAL NOW ALSO AS HE USED TO TEACH US VERY UNDESTANDING WAY.AT PRESENT I AM IN BARC
-- R K PAWN on October 3, 2009 at 02:56 ET
well i believe in present not in past !!

it was years back when our b'loved city was once roaring high.
but now the city is in a pathetic condition when compared to other big cities in.
and that is the truth!!
one of the reasons may be lucknow with its politics..
but the city needs a lot of improvement globally!!!
-- siddharth on September 13, 2009 at 01:42 ET
Hi
According to me Kanpur is the second largest city in northern India ,after New Delhi.As far as its civic facilities goes there is still some work has to be done because whatever sanitation facility was there , it was excellent few years back but due to population explosion more has to be done.Education in Kanpur is better than even New Delhi(Even though Delhi has some of the bigger names in education i.e Sanskriti & Modern School which everyone cannot afford)I do have a dream for Kanpur but if only new generation is ready to help & stop chewing Paan Masala & spitting everywhere.

-- Umesh Chandra Srivastava on August 22, 2009 at 03:20 ET
Yar tum sab log pagal ho. You need tell people about mother. kanpur is like my mother. I am born brought up there. I know each every gali , motijheel me cricket, football. I will suggest all of you to go around kanpur
1. go for boat ride at bithoor excellent place avoid transport or else go by cycle once in a month.
2. Go to shoban near shivrajpur.
3 Enjoy walking at CSA and Medical College.
I have seen kanpur from Chekeri jajmau to naramau and bithoor and nawabganj to shyam nagar
every thing is good. but because of only metroplis in and around for 6 districts it attacts people for livelyhood.You cant help for that. Govt has to create value at village level and implement some prog so that this migration stops or reduced to certain extent.
And pl try to vote for good people who can do something for people instead of filling their pockets. Go to motijheel banarsi chai wale ke pass and have a tea and then buy badnam laddu misra mattewale(top quality stuff).

love to every kanpuria

About kanpur,I would like to share my views. Being a manchaster,kanpur is well known for leather Industry.But due to power supply,The city become failure with respect to trade.Winding up of companies due to power failure and pollution.Basic amenities are no more.
-- Lalit on August 12, 2009 at 03:37 ET
