150 years old Motilal Ghat (bathing ghat of Kolkata) needs
renovation. The "richest and most virtuous baboo of Calcutta" Mutty
Lall Seal or Moti Lal Seal established this bathing ghat on
the bank of River Hooghly (Ganga) in the middle of nineteenth century
alongwith other benevolent activities for Calcutta. The bathing ghat
is now being neglected, under dilapidation. Alongwith other older
ghats, this century-old Motilal Ghat should also be declared as
heritage monument and conserved as well. --
