Talk:Madhyamgram

Not neutral
I feel this article is very much written from someone who really wishes I would go on a vacation to their wonderful city. I already tried to clean up the article a little, but there's still some talk about how they have the "best schools" and how the city is "famous for" things, that I don't really know how to clean up nicely.

start article
This is a decent start article. It needs an infobox though with local information. --Antorjal 18:26, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

History
History of Madhyamgram is the history of flourishment and downfall. Madhyamgram was in the Kingdom of Raja Protapaditya Roy, one of the twelve feudal provinces of Bengal and Ruler of Jessore during the Mughal regime.

On 20/12/1757 Mirzafar, the Nawab of Bengal presented twenty four parganas to East India Company as dowry which also included Madhyamgram,under Anwarpur Pargana adjacent to Barasat.

The first Railway line from Madhyamgram to Duttapurkur was commissioned in 1882 when the station was called Chandipur and Madhyamgram was then named as Majher Gaon, probably because the area was situated between Badu (Chakradharpur Mouza) and Sajirhat (Guchuria Mouza).

The present narrow Noai Canal now acting as dividing border line between New Barrackpore and Madhyamgram stretching from the South of Ganganagar to Sajirhat in the West was actually a wide river, once called Labanyabati which through colloquial transformation became Noai river and after years of silt depositions it turned into Noai Canal.

At that time Anwarpur Pargana was famous for tobacco trade and a special sweet smelling blended tobacco was manufactured in Madhyamgram.

Over and above Madhyamgram was also a big paddy growing area and Labanya river was a medium of navigation for export of those products. Besides, Madhyamgram was also famous for fine and beautiful embroidery works and those gratifying beauty was getting appreciation from Kolkata, even Delhi and Mumbai. Many Muslim families used to maintain livelihood through those works.

In this way of historical evolution and step by step development planning we got the present day Madhyamgram. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Aishik.paul (talk • contribs) 08:36, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
