It was a regular desk

 After Stamp Act 1765, it was the turn of Pontiac's War.

Apparently, these topics were being used by Antara's generation to settle the Great Succession question. 

To provide heft, several former batchmates had 'agreed' to join Antara's side.

It was not correct, given the blog was not even one-tenth the work that Antara did on a daily basis

These former batchmates were free to leave Antara, if they felt hesitant.

Pontiac's War (1763) was about British rule in the Great Lakes region. 

Sometime in 1986, when her Gorakhpur aunt was unwell with a terminal disease, Antara's parents had gone to visit her, they came back about a week or so later. Anjali was full of stories about the 'great lake' next to the railway apartment in which Antara's Gorakhpur aunt and uncle lived. (The aunt passed away in 1987.)

Around 1990, when her Gorakhpur cousin married, Ajit-Anjali went to Gorakhpur again, along with Antara and the sibling. The uncle had retired, they no longer lived next to the 'great lake', so all of them went visiting the railway neighbourhood where they had previously lived.

The uncle and Cousin Botuk had accompanied them, the latter kept complaining, "What's to see in Ram Tal (the 'great lake'), we could have gone to Gorakhnath Temple etc."

"Just to see it, wanted to show the wonder to Antara, so that she saw the 'great lake'," Anjali had replied.

Thus, legit lease solved these problems quite well, Pontiac's War etc, which was strange, given the expert scholarship prevailing in Britain about the early legit lease, it still wanted to consider Pontiac's War as a puzzle.

Of course, one possibility was that Kolkata was intrigued why these lease-related historical puzzles were often solved by Anjali, where she got her information, apart from foreign language schools, whether Prussian networks went around surreptitiously spreading legit lease information.

It was a network all right, but not Prussian, it was called the English East India Company, it knew lease details and might have shared it with NS Road.

The English East India Company had pure silk traders, so their activities were not always known to those who produced artificial silk in laboratories in the early 20th century. 

Given what happened in 2001, why did Jadavpur hire a management consulting firm whose origins lay in making artificial silk?

Was it not familiar with the English East India Company?

Worse, was Jadavpur afraid of the Tagores? 

Did both the Germans and their Musk refuse to discuss the topic, hence engaging a consulting firm to find out why Antara didn't fear the Tagores?
