Ahead of the first round of voting on the 23rd, I have written 4 data driven pieces on #WestBengal
Part 1: #Kolkata vs the Metros
https://ordinaryanalysis.substack.com/p/kolkata-a-rank-worth-questioning
Part 2: Industrialisation and Investment
https://ordinaryanalysis.substack.com/p/west-bengal-economy-large-by-size-thin-by-structure
Part 3: Health Outcomes
https://ordinaryanalysis.substack.com/p/west-bengal-solved-healthcare-access
Part 4: Welfare Worked. Wealth Didn’t Follow.
https://ordinaryanalysis.substack.com/p/west-bengal-welfare-worked-wealth

Part 5 is the synthesis. It will try to connect the threads across cities, economy, health, and human development. It will also carry some personal commentary.
