  • A Study of the Loans of the Princely State of Cooch Behar, 1863-1911
    A Study of the Loans of the Princely State of Cooch Behar, 1863-1911 Tapas Debnath1 and Dr. Tahiti Sarkar2 1Research Scholar, Department of History, University of North Bengal 2Assistant Professor, Department of History, University of North Bengal Abstract: This article focuses on the loans of the Cooch Behar State especially the loans of Maharaja Nripendra Narayan. Cooch Behar became a protected State of the British in 1773. In the initial years of the British connection, Cooch Behar had some debts. After that, there was an increase in the savings of the State from 1864-1883. But the transfer of administration of the Cooch Behar State to Maharaja Nripendra Narayan in 1883 once again faced a shortfall in the State budget. The enormous development activities and personal expenses of Maharaja Nripendra Narayan created this situation. During his reign and afterward, the princely State of Cooch Behar was largely dependent on loans for the smooth running of the State. The British Government was very anxious to collect the debts from Cooch Behar. They wanted to control and reduce the personal expenditure of the Maharaja indirectly for the effective payment of the debts of the Cooch Behar State and the Maharaja. Maharaja Nripendra Narayan didn't control it entirely. After the death of Maharaja Nripendra Narayan, and apathy was seen in the attitude of the British Government to approve the large loan application of the Cooch Behar State from the British treasury. Keywords: Cooch Behar, Loan, Debt, Nripendra Narayan The British connection with Cooch Behar has established in 1773.1 The question, whether Cooch Behar was a native State or part of British Indian arose in 1873.

The history of British India is mainly indicated the formation of Paramountcy in the Princely States of India. During the first half of the 19th century one of the policy of the British Government was the implementation of the indirect rule. For that purpose .. British Government introduced the system of Regency Council in the Princely States. Regency Council is a person or group of person selected to act as the head of the State when the ruler is minor or not present or debilitated. The period of a regent or regents is referred to as regency. Cooch Behar, the tiny Princely State in North - Eastern India is not an exception of that. The geographical location of the State interested the British Government to take some measures in this regard. However, the administration of the Princely State of Cooch Behar found a new dimension from I 863. Here it deserve to mention that after the death of Maharaja Harendra Narayan in 1839, the Colonial Government had the free run in the State. The successor, Maharaja Shivendra Narayan had a pro- British attitude. Therefore, when he ascended the throne, it helped the British Government to fulfi ll their designs. So, the policy of indirect rule found its strong foothold in Cooch Behar. After that the British helped the Maharaja in all avenues of administration. Regarding smooth running of the State there were broad lines of the British administration for Cooch Behar during the minority of the Maharaja and the general principles of the British Government adopted by the State, was a beneficial scheme for the smooth running of the State.

  • Koch Coinage: from Anglo-Koch Treaty to Merger (1773-1949)
    Chapter IV Koch Coinage: From Anglo-Koch Treaty to Merger (1773-1949) The year 1773 was marked by the Anglo-Koch treaty in the history of the Koch kingdom and this treaty had profound influence over the following course of events in the Koch kingdom. By this treaty the kingdom became a subsidiary state and the administrative power to a great extend fall into the hand of the authorities of the English East India Company. This treaty had profound impact over the Kingdoms age long currency system also. Though the treaty had not banned the free minting of Narayani currency but from the later developments after the treaty we can understand that the British authorities was in no mood of its free circulation and different times they imposed certain restriction over the minting of Narayani coins. Though the Koch rulers took some initiatives but their efforts were not enough to revive the glory of the Narayani currency and due to the pressure of the imperial powers the currency lost its hold from the markets of the state and finally the circulation stopped officially form 1866.But before analyzing the declining process of the Narayani currency we will first look at the successive rulers who issued coins after 1773. The coins issued after this date was mainly ceremonial coins and issued only in the time of accession in limited numbers. This coronation issues started from the time of Dhairyendra Narayan and came down to the state‟s last ruler Jagaddipendra Narayan. Harendra Narayan (1783-1839): After the death of Dhairyendra Narayan his young son Harendra Narayan a baby scarcely four years old was placed in the throne.

  • The British Construction of Indirect Rule in Princely State of Cooch Behar (1773-1947)
    The British Construction of Indirect Rule in Princely State of Cooch Behar (1773-1947) Dr. Anil Kumar Sarkar Associate Professor of History, Gour Banga University, Malda That the British devised and then sustained a system of indirect rule can be experienced from the model of administration they developed in many parts of the World and the case of Kamata Koch Kingdom or Cooch Behar is a gleaming example of such a design. Michael Fischer studied the British residency System and he had explained indirect rule in India.1 When British came to India; their main objective was to develop a congenial position of trade and commerce. But from the second half of the eighteenth Century, they created Political Residency system and gradually the trading interest was shifted to Political strategy and goal. These changes brought with them new relationship between the British and the indigenous rulers. As the Britishers realized their new opportunities and needs they began to transform their network of commercial representatives into a system of political Agents. From the middle of the nineteenth Century, the Residency system became one of the central pillars of the British Empire in India.2 The British experimented to maximize their commercial profits, to limit their political liabilities, and to reduce their operational expenses; they first tried to collect revenues through the administration of the Nawab of Bengal. The company soon discovered that this system enriched its servants but did not fulfill their need. So Warren Hastings, Governor of Bengal (1772-73), and the first Governor General of India (1773-85), introduced a more direct system of revenue collection through British Officers, which reached the highest point in the Permanent settlement of 1793.

  • The Importance of Being Siliguri, Or the Lack Thereof Border-Effect and the “Untimely” City in North Bengal
    The Importance of Being Siliguri, or the Lack Thereof Border-Effect and the “Untimely” City in North Bengal Atig Ghosh 2016 The Importance of Being Siliguri, or the Lack Thereof Border-Effect and the “Untimely” City in North Bengal ∗ Atig Ghosh Debashis Chakraborty visited Siliguri for the first time in 1952. After the final examinations of Class IV, this was his first trip to Siliguri to visit the part of his family that had relocated to this town from Dinajpur following the Partition of 1947. The family had set off one morning from Dinajpur town and after changing trains thrice, they reached Siliguri the next day. From the train, the child had for the first time seen the blue line of mountains. The Siliguri Junction station, where they got off, struck him as shiny new. They took a rickshaw from the station which ferried them across the wooden deck-bridge over River Mahananda along a winding pitch road. Beside the bridge ran the railway tracks for the toy train. While passing the Road Station (now Hasmi Chowk), he noticed the small wagons of the goods-trains standing idly. And what captivated him further— remained anchored in his memories lifelong— were the houses: mostly made of wood, some stood on stilts. Their house was no different. It was a bungalow, Chakraborty tells us. The yellow paint of the wooden planks contrasted sharply with the bright green of the doors and windows. The bright red tin roof shone in the morning sun. In front of the house, was a cutcha lane, along the two sides of which open drains had been freshly dug.
