💨 Abstract

The Calcutta High Court has ordered the restoration of tram tracks in Kolkata, stating that trams are part of the city's cultural ethos. The court observed that there should be a political will to preserve the city's heritage. The court also directed the Kolkata Police to investigate complaints of illegal bituminisation of tram tracks and report back within four weeks. The court expressed concern that such actions might be with the approval of authorities.
