Poetic licence

Chaitanya Kalbag's article Calcutta is forever (June 14) was a nostalgic piece. It was a different kind of a feature.

Chaitanya Kalbag's article Calcutta is forever (June 14) was a nostalgic piece. It was a different kind of a feature. But i would like to note that while Rabindranath Tagore wrote the poem, brishti porey tapur tupur, he didn’t make it a song. It is not listed in Geetabitan — the repository of his songs.
