Rabindranath's Sonar Bangla and culturally proud people of Bengal was for last six decades, so proud and intellectually sleepy that they did not know , - their state is still named 'West Bengal' and/or Pashchim Banga . Strange !! -- What is West if there is no 'East' , -remaining ?(Or what is Pashchim without its Purba ??
. That only means , it is yet a 'Bhanga Banga'or fractured State.
While both 'SonarBangla' and 'Bangla Desh' have been embraced by the Easten part of Undivided Bengal(after25 yrs -long waiting),West Bengal was so much busy in Gandhian and Marxian(CPM) tussle and then onward in triangular love of Congress, Trinamool and CPM that 'west Bengal' had all along been suffering from Identity-Crisis and now as an 'ALZ'- state and complacent with whatever it has as inheritance.
And yet this state still boast of its culture inspite of falling behind even some backward states of yester-period or post independence-aftermath.
Now is the period of DADA vs DIDI drama eating into the vitals of the State itself.
So, let west bengal be christened as 'Bhanga Desh' to fit in the name it deserves.
