Report on Panam City.Docx Report on Panam City By Tahmid Ahmed The Baro Bhuiyan leader Isa Khan established the first capital of Bengal in Sonargaon, nearly 450 years ago, in the 15th century. The city consisted of a twenty square kilometre area of Sonargaon at that time. The city was built specially for the high ranked royal employees and the Muslin businessmen. During the medieval period Sonargaon was the old capital of Bengal. Different rulers used Sonargaon as their capital. As foreign cloth was imported through Meghna River (East) and Shitolokkha River (West) and Muslin was exported via waterway, some have called this the port city. Various antique and historical buildings which were built centuries ago still stand strong in Sonargaon and are related with the history of Baro-Bhuyan. Situated about 2.5 kilometres to the north of the Dhaka-Chittagong highway at Mograpara point, Panam City is one of the most popular tourist spots in Bangladesh. A busy city of once upon a time, is now only a part of history. There is no crowd for Moslin, no noise from traders. It's like the city is sleeping . The city seems to be lost for hundreds of years. Panam Nagar is also known as ‘The Lost City’. The city is almost in ruins. The World Monument Fund declared Panam Nagar as one of the 100 ruinous historical establishments in 2006. Panam was used as a Hindu capital city in the late 13th century. 15th century ruler Jamidar Isa Khan first settled Panam Nagar as the capital of the area, though the area was popular even as far back as the 13th century. There existed three large settlements; Boro Nagar, Pash Nagar and Panam Nagar. Panam Nagar was and is the most popular of the three. Later, the city was conquered by the Mughals in 1610. They constructed many bridges and highways here. These are : ● Panam bridge ● Jabalpur bridge ● Panam Nagar bridge In the nineteenth century British rule started in Bengal . At that time, it was developed as the center city of trade. It is said that about 1400 Hindu and Muslim families lived in and around the Panam. The Majority of the people were weavers from Marwaris, Bengali Hindus, and Muslims. Factories were built by the East India Company to buy muslin and many other cotton fabrics. Eventually some Hindu merchants came from Kolkata to Sonargaon in that colonial period who were wealthy and started a new township in Panam Nagar. The ornamentation of the buildings carried the value and prestige of the owners. Many offices, temples, and mosques were built in this town. The establishment continued from the beginning of the 19th century and ended in the early 20th century. Till the end of the Second World War, the development of Panam Nagar continued to flourish . The Panam city joins the 2500km historic Grand Trunk Road with it. Because of the 1947 division and Hindu Muslim riots , many Hindu merchants left panam City. But The migration of the Hindus to India after the Indo-Pak War of 1965 and Muslim-Hindu riot has made Panam Nagar into a vacant community. The Panam nagar is constructed along with Panam Street. The street is 60 miles in length and 5 miles in width. All the existing forty-nine buildings are standing on both sides of the road. There is a mixture of single, two and three stories buildings in the area. Around Fifty two houses exist on its last legs and abandoned condition having 31 on the north side of the street and 21 on the south.The city is well protected by artificial canals all around. Two large canals run parallel to the street on its either parts and are connected by a narrow canal on the western side over which is the entrance bridge. There are both types of building structures in Panam Nagar, separated and joined types, usually rectangular in shape and extended in the north-south direction. Height of the buildings usually vary from single to three stories. According to the building layouts and architectural designs, the residence houses of Panam can be categorized into three basic types: ● central hall type, ● central courtyard type and ● consolidated type. The site is surrounded by many big trees. There are enough spaces and benches where people can sit and gossip. The site is clean and tidy. The authority appointed three cleanliness people who are working to make the site well - oriented. Besides, there are enough trash baskets. The site is well secured. The whole site is covered by CCTV cameras. Besides Ansar Vdp and security men make the place more secured. Furthermore Bangladesh Tourists Police and local police's contact number are there in case of any emergency. There are few grocery shops out of the site. People can buy snacks from the shops. But no good restaurants are available there. Inside the site, few art and crafts shops are at hand.The financial situation of locals is on average. According to them , their condition was poor when they lived in it as a common place. But when the government announced it as one of the historical places and made it more attractive to the tourists their situation changed . As the site was well known for cotton and other businesses ,still business is the main profession of the local people . There are two primary schools and one high school and college situated beside the heritage site. Furthermore one government college was also established in Sonargaon. The behavior of the locals is very important to make the tourists comfortable and make the place more attractive. Local people are friendly and helpful. They always welcome the people with great warmth. They try their best to make the tourists easy going and they are well known about their behavior. They are very proud of being a part of this site. All the forty-nine buildings are in different condition right now. Some are really dangerous for visitors to step in, some are completely intact while some others require repairing for the visitors to ensure safe tourism.Here are some weakness that emerges : ● Lack of facilities ● Safety issues of the buildings ● No interpretation signage ● The absence of a buffer zone ● No website Changes in designs of buildings, landscape and periphery of township is a continuous process. The architectural design of the buildings of Panamnagar, the mapping of the city, its landscape and surroundings are unique in nature that indicates that Bengal civilization started many years ago. Given that a historic city is a door to the past of a nation, it must be protected to know the past of the concerned nation. Panamnagar is the last surviving historic city of the lost glorious Bengal province.To protect the city’s cultural significance, the following step can be taken: Identify the buffer zone The city is surrounded by water bodies which technically work as a buffer zone, but to protect the place from illegal encroachment of vendors, a buffer zone needs to be demarcated.The main entrance is used to sell tickets to visitors. But unfortunately, beyond these two controls, there are many illegal vendors occupying places inside the historic city.To keep the heritage site safe and sound, defining a proper buffer zone is the first and major step. Identification and Documentation To protect and conserve the heritage site it is very important to identify and document every building properly and precisely. After documentation, it would be easier for the authority to take the decision how to conserve the structures. Each and every single building needs different attention. Reasons and probable solution of building deterioration It is the basic requirement to understand the age of the building, its materials, construction techniques, design quality, and workmanship before considering any recommendation for protection, conservation, preservation, reconstruction, reuse, repair, and maintenance. Without having the proper knowledge any physical conservation policy may cause irreversible damage.Recommendations for conserving the Panamnagar city ● Feasibility study ● Policy formulation based on the analysis ● Awareness campaign to educate community ● Strict Government action & plan to save monuments, setting up of Archaeological departments ● Collecting, generation of funds & donation for their renovation ● Chemical treatments of monuments & restoration ● Taxes/donations to preserve monuments, monument fees and other related funds from citizens and tourists. ● Volunteering for their conservation It is the basic requirement to understand the age of the building, its materials, construction techniques, design quality, and workmanship before considering any recommendation for protection, conservation, preservation, reconstruction, reuse, repair, and maintenance. Without having the proper knowledge any physical conservation policy may cause irreversible damage.Panamnagar has a very strong inspiration for the artistic and cultural response. In Bengal literature, stories, photographs, movies the place has been used as a beautiful symbol.The city is directly associated with the lifestyle of the richest merchants of Bengal in the 18th century. It carries the day to day life and the history of people who used to live there.The ancient city is very important to the local people as they believe it carries their identity. They believe people from all over the country know about this place because of the heritage city .Finally, given the historical as well as social and economic importance, the government of Bangladesh must take all necessary measures to conserve the Panamnagar heritage site for its new generations. .

  • Demand for Information on Environmental Health Risk, Mode of Delivery, and Behavioral Change: Evidence from Sonargaon, Bangladesh
    Demand for Information on Environmental Health Risk, Mode of Delivery, and Behavioral Change: Evidence from Sonargaon, Bangladesh Alessandro Tarozzi Ricardo Maertens Kazi Matin Ahmed Alexander van Geen∗ June 2019 Abstract Millions of villagers in Bangladesh are chronically exposed to arsenic by drinking contaminated water from private wells. Free testing for arsenic has been shown to encourage households with unsafe wells to switch to safer sources that are often within walking distance. We describe results from a cluster randomized controlled trial conducted in 112 villages in Bangladesh to evaluate the effectiveness of different schemes to sell information on well-water quality at inducing households to stop using arsenic-contaminated water for drinking. We study whether either informal inter- household agreements to share water from wells that are found to be safe, or visual reminders of well status in the form of metal placards mounted on the well pump, can increase risk-mitigating behavior relative to simple individual sales of privately provided information. At a price of about USD0.60, only one in four households purchased a test and sales were not increased by risk-sharing agreements or visual reminders. However, switching away from an unsafe wells almost doubled in response to agreements or placards relative to the one in three proportion of households who switched away from an unsafe well with simple individual sales. JEL: I12, I15, I18, Q53 Key words: Arsenic, Bangladesh, Environmental Health Risk ∗We are very grateful to Prabhat Barnwal for conversations about risk-sharing that started this project.

  • CC-7: HISTORY of INDIA (C.1206-1526) PART- III BENGAL
    CC-7: HISTORY OF INDIA (c.1206-1526) II. SULTANATE POLITICAL STRUCTURE (C). EMERGENCE OF PROVINCIAL DYNASTIES: BAHAMANIS, VIJAYANAGAR, GUJRAT, MALWA, JAUNPUR AND BENGAL. PART- III BENGAL Being a distant province, Bengal had always been a problematic province for the Delhi Sultanate. Though Bengal was annexed to the Delhi Sultanate, a number of times it gained independence. Bengal was the eastern most province of the Delhi Sultanate. Long distance, uncomfortable climate, poor means of transport and communication made it difficult for the Sultans of Delhi to control the province of Bengal. Bakhtiyar Khilji, one of the military commanders of the Muhammad of Ghur was the first Muslim invader who annexed Bengal and Bihar by over throwing the Sena dynasty of Bengal. After his death his successors declared independence. Later Balban, the Sultan of Delhi brought Bengal under the control of Delhi Sultanate and appointed his son Bughra Khan as the Governor of Bengal. But soon after the death of Balban his son declared Bengal as an independence province. In order to solve the problems of the province of Bengal Ghyasuddin Tughlaq divided the Bengal province into three administrative units-Lakhnauti, Satgaon, Sonargaon. The problems of the Bengal province continued after finally Bengal emerged as an independent regional state in the 14th century. The history of Bengal entered a new phase when Haji-Shamsh-ud-din Ilyas khan founded a new dynasty, the Ilyas Shahi dynasty which ruled for around 125 years up to 1538 though in phases. Haji-Shamsh-ud-din Ilyas khan unified the independent kingdom of Bengal. Besides he made incursions into Nepal and Orissa.

  • An Outline of the Arakanese Rule in Southeast Bengal During 16Th and 17Th Century AD
    An Outline of the Arakanese Rule in Southeast Bengal During 16th and 17th Century AD * U Bodhinyana Arakan had been an independent kingdom for over four millennium and its relations with Bengal was very intimate, specially Chittagong, the southeastern part of Bangladesh, which derived its name in consequence of the victory over local chieftain by King Chula Taing Chandra of Arakan in 953 AD1. The subordination of Chittagong to Arakan is corresponded to the absence of supremacy of other royal claimants over the region. The statement of the Arakanese chroniclers may, however, be taken as a proof of the Arakanese lordship over southeast Bengal. Arakan, “in fact, a continuation of the Chittagong plain,”2 was neither purely a Burmese (Myanmar) nor an Indian territory till the 18th century AD the land that has been called Arakan by the foreigners is known to its own people Rakhaing-pray and call themselves Rakhaing-tha. The word rakkha means guardian, pray means land and tha meaning son. Hence, Rakhaing-pray and Rakhaing-tha means ‘land of the guardian’ and ‘son of the guardian’. The Bengali on the other hand refer them as Magh, the word adopted in the 17th century, to mean it with degrading appellation. Neither the Arakanese nor any other Mongoloid brethren ever speak or write of themselves as “Magh” as it has been alien to them. The European travelers and chroniclers refer them as ‘Recon, Rakan, Arracan, Aracao, Orrakan, Arrakan, Arakan’. In colloquial Chittagong dialect, the country is called ‘Rohang and Roshang’. All these various forms are closely related to the original one ‘Rakhaing’ (or Rakhine)3.
