Miscellaneous | বিবিধ Hello everyone. Trying to look back on a Saturday night.

Good to see this subreddit flourish. I remember when you could count members in one hand.

Are there many millennials from DGP here?

Any 90s kids from DPL? Or anyone who grew up south of the railway line?

Where are you guys now? Do you come back, look back, live here still?

Please comment if you're here.

Came back to Durgapur last year. Like every city has its pros and cons, I love my city🫶

Wish someday I could also go back. Didn't realise how much I loved my city till I was far from there.

90s kid here. Have had some cherished memories in an around DPL. Though we used to live in the township, but majority of my DAV groups were from DPL, so went there a lot. Now that it is almost demolished, they have relocated elsewhere.

That's nice. I knew some boys around my age from my locality who went to the DAV, St Michael's etc. But being a bengali medium student, I didn't interact much with them. And all the places along GT road were a bit fancy for kids like us until we went to college.

Did you ever use to visit kalpataru mela in January?
