Today Asansol is not considered as the second biggest city in West Bengal ,if we see in terms of population then we can reach to this type of a conclusion but if we see the overall development in terms of growth in the IT sector ,real estate ,hospitals ,entertainment hubs ,plazas ,industries ,business and the most important infrastructural growth then we will see that DURGAPUR is second followed by SILIGURI and then we can name Asansol ,if anyone is aware of the type of developments happening in DURGAPUR then one can see that companies like DLF,SHAPOORJI PALLONJI along with many shoppping malls are making forays into Durgapur ,new hospitals ,branded hotels ,educational institutes are coming up ,its becoming a boom town and a bussiness friendly city for all the upmarket companies ,the same story is with Siliguri but the communication and infrastructure is not so good in North Bengal

The development work carried out by ADDA for both Asansol and Durgapur,are splendid.
I am waiting for that day,when these two twin towns will become mega cities..as is the plan by ADDA.With the proposal to build an airport at Andal,that day seems not to be far away.
Well Asansol is the second largest city in West Bengal.Asansol is not lagging behind in any respect.Shopping malls like The Galaxy,Asansol Centrum and many more are in the pipeline alongwith some well known multiplexes.Multi Speciality hospitals like BP Poddar Hospitals and Medica Synergie will open its branches here.One dental college will be opened soon.Branded hotels are also in the list.Vedanta aluminium is ready to open its new plant in Asansol within a couple of years.Videocon will also open its new steel plant in Asansol.Shristinagar-the new asansol will be comprising of residential apartments,bungalows,Amusement park,clubs,shopping mall with multiplex,offices and an IT park.Big banners like NK realtors will construct the Sugam park which will be a residential complex............So my question is that is Asansol lagging behind in any respect?????
