Answer 1

sorry i dont explain it

Answer 2

• In 1880, Durgacharan Ray wrote a novel, 'Debganer Martye Aagaman' (The Gods Visit Earth), in which Brahma, the Creator in Hindu  mythology, took a train to Calcutta with some other gods. As Varuna,  the Rain God, conducted them around the capital of British India, Calcutta.

• The city of Calcutta in the nineteenth century was brimming with  opportunities – for trade and commerce, education and jobs. The gods were wonderstruck by the big, modern city – the train  itself, the large ships on the river Ganges, factories belching smoke,  bridges and monuments and a dazzling array of shops selling a  wide range of commodities. The gods were so impressed by the  marvels of the teeming metropolis that they decided to build a  Museum and a High Court in Heaven!

• But the gods were disturbed by another aspect of city life – its cheats  and thieves, its grinding poverty, and the poor quality of housing  for many. Brahma himself got tricked into buying a pair of cheap  glasses and when he tried to buy a pair of shoes, he was greatly  confused by the shopkeepers who accused one another of being  swindlers. The gods were also perturbed at the confusion of caste,  religious and gender identities in the city. All social distinctions that  appeared to be natural and normal seemed to be breaking down.
