02:41and it's already there. So it means that we have to wait for your election to be able
02:46to implement this project. We are very happy to implement this in this context because
02:51you have a vision to develop tourism in West Bengal and in this city. And I want to say
02:59that Chandigarh is a jewel to develop tourism. You have gold in your hands. And as a matter
03:08of fact, I want to remember to all of you that tourism is not just a word. It's an industry.
03:15Tourism means economy. It means cash. It means jobs. It means education. It means training.
03:26And on all that, well, we want to bring back France to Chandigarh. So this is the reason
03:33why we are so keen to contribute to the development of the tourism industry in this city. So of
03:41course, through the restoration of a registry, I mean, building, which will be not only a
03:48building restore, but let's say the start of a larger project. As I said just two minutes
03:56ago, I was very impressed at what you did here in the Strand. So this is the reason why
04:01I propose from next year on that we could organize with the government of Bengal and the authorities
04:08of this city a French festival here. So meaning that we will bring French culture, cinema, artists,
04:16cuisine, and also economy. As a matter of fact, I want to mention that for the first time in
04:21history, the French ambassador will be back in Calcutta in a couple of weeks at the beginning
04:29of December to organize with a big delegation, business delegation, an investment contract.
04:35It will be the first time we organize an investment contract in West Bengal. Why? Because the situation
04:42has changed. So if you have suggestion that we could send, I don't know, well, whatever team
04:49or a kind of exchange. Well, I ask this to the government, please make some suggestions and
04:55we will be very happy to answer you and to think about amino projects. Thank you.
05:05On this particular matter, I'd like to just comment that our chief minister is also in touch with
05:11our civil aviation aviation minister for, you know, that new European flight should be fly
05:18from our Calcutta airport. And matter of fact, it is very much important to initiate, especially
05:28when we are looking for the tourism, especially the foreign tourists. It is the most important
05:34thing. I hope that we will resolve these things within a few months or a year. And secondly, we
05:41will be getting the French football team. You know that West Bengal is a football crazy
05:46state. So it will be an honor for us if we can manage this kind of agreement with the French
05:54embassy. And I hope that our sports minister, Dr. Indor Gil Khan, we must have a talk with
06:03him and thereafter we will plan for if this kind of thing can be done here in West Bengal.
06:11And it will be very clear. Thank you.
06:14And it goes to the next few weeks.
06:15And it will be very deep. I think it will be beautiful. Thank you.
06:15So please let me answer that question for you.
06:16It will be very deep. And it will be very deep. Thank you.
