Why Bengalis are not Shop Owner, doing Business or Entrepreneurship in Kolkata

Please don't hate me for this.

I live in South Kolkata.

So, ami notice korechi ami jekhene thaki shop owners like big shop like stationary, grocery etc are owned by the Marwaris and small shop or street sides are owned by Biharis. I rarely a shop whose owner is Bengali I see, Bengalis drenched in sweat in bus and metro going to offices only.

Also ami bangali shop owners der dekhi ektu rude hoi ar they try to overcharge you. Like once I went to fix my track pants to a Bengali owner, he was asking 200 to just small stitch and also rude, so I went to another shop the owner was Punjabi he fixed it for just 30 rupees.

The Marwari shop owners are much more polite in comparison, I always initiate conversation in Bengali no matter the person is Bengali or not, Marwari talk to me in Bengali then but some Bengali folks try to still talk in Hindi, I mean what's wrong with speaking Bengali?

Is this a Kolkata only case ?
