Story story: there is actually a park called Ganja park in Kolkata... ITS for real... wikimapia and even google has Maps showing its exact location...
when growing up we had to walk on the footpath along this park to get to Jadubabu bazzar for daily vegetables and fruits... my parents used to send our nanny and/ or the driver to walk behind us, so that we could walk "independently" yet be protected from the local inhabitants of this park: Ganja Park (Kolkata) (( look up these urls: http://wikimapia.org/8005943/Ganja-Park and http://maps.google.com/maps/place?hl=en&rlz=1G1GGLQ_ENIN342&um=1&ie=UTF-8&q=ganja+park+kolkata&fb=1&hq=ganja+park&hnear=0x39f882db4908f667:0x43e330e68f6c2cbc,Kolkata,+West+Bengal,+India&cid=2256933379110929271)). Now its all sanitized and old folks walk there and children are reported to play there... not a single ganja leaf to be seen or had , as per the local authorities...
