Three things #Kolkata’s transport system needs urgently
* Revival of trams and removal of autos on tram routes
* Many more public buses including e-buses
* A proper ISBT, preferably two, one around the airport and one near Santragachi.
As Nice’s trams carry the “Bharat Innovates 2026” message ahead of PM @narendramodi, we urge the French government and mobility leaders to support Kolkata’s historic tramways. Let India-France cooperation preserve a living heritage while advancing sustainable urban transport.
If implemented, this is going to be a game changer. A vehicle free street with trams and cycles plying, a true model for a sustainable and walkable street.
A welcoming step!!!

Trams are making a comeback in the city. Transport Minister Arjun Singh has promised the revival, restoration and modernization of the city's tram network with integration with Metro services.
Happy to work together @ArjunsinghWB@BJP4Bengal
@DilipGhoshBJP TMC DESTROYED OUR BEAUTIFUL KOLKATA TRAM NETWORK. REDUCED TO ONLY 2 ROUTES FROM 35 ROUTES. THEY SOLD THE YRAM DEPOTS FOR MONEY AND DIDNT MODERNISED THEM. SHAMELESS TMC MAYOR AND HIS PUPPET MINISTER FIRHAD HAKIM.
@sagarikaghose@ShatruganSinha@BJP4India Can us answer @sagarikaghose . Where are 33 crores rupees which were given Kolkata Metro for Construction of BBD BAGH TRAM TERMINUS ??? All looted. Your party and Didi along with her puppet ministers destroyed Kolkata Tramways. Selling off depots for crores of money. SHAMELESS 😡
🚋 We demand the revival of the iconic BBD Bagh to Chitpur tram route! With the land returned and compensation given by the Metro, there’s no reason to delay. This historic route, once one of the most profitable, has been closed for 7 years. Let’s bring back Kolkata’s tram
@PantryCar@swapan55 We are fighting for its revival happy to assist the govt , this route was never restored after Amphan cyclone in 2021 despite of lots of promises in media ! @mayukhrghosh@madanmitraoff
We demand investigation of report and Immediate reconstruction of BBD BAGH TRAM TERMINUS. @AITCofficial has done so much harm to our Trams. This is high time to expose it one by one and revive our Tram Network. @BJP4India@_pallavighosh@upamanyu95
@TramRightsForum Trams running in 400+ cities across the world, in upgraded and moderniser form, and then here we have a bunch of dehati gawars like this Dahal ke 14.........stop giving attention to such idiots.
RW crowd is generally retarded on these matters.
Trams or buses don't obstruct "traffic". The traffic in the first place is due to lack of enough Metros, Trams & Buses.
What Kolkata needs is good, reliable, comfortable (with AC) public transport. Not Car centric infra.
Congratulations to @ArjunsinghWB on becoming Transport Minister ; @swapan55 on taking charge as Finance Minister of West Bengal.
The future of sustainable mobility, including the modernization and revival of Kolkata’s iconic tramways, presents a unique opportunity for bengal
