General Characteristics of the District The name ‘Murshidabad’ comes from the place known as “Muksudabad” which was the capital of Bengal during Murshid Quli Khan’s rule. Before the advent of British, the city of Murshidabad was the capital of Bengal. It has a great significance in the Indian History as in 1757 the British defeated Siraj–ud–Daula in the Battle of Plassey, after which the entire nation was brought under the British Colonial Rule. Even after the conquest of Bengal by the British, Murshidabad remained for some time the seat of administration. The town still bears memories of Nawabs with mosques, tombs, and gardens, and retains such industries as carving in ivory, gold and silver embroidery and silk weaving. Of historic interest are Nizamat Kila (the Fortress of the Nawabs) also known as the Hazaarduari Palace (Palace of a Thousand Doors), the Moti Jhil (Pearl Lake), the Muradbagh Palace and the Khushbagh Cemetery. Murshidabad today is a centre for agriculture, handicrafts and sericulture. The district is basically agrarian in character. The major work-force of the district is engaged in this sector. The agricultural sector makes the greatest contribution to the district’s total income. The district is not endowed with many natural resources. In the Secondary Sector, i.e. manufacturing, the district’s performance is far below the desired level. It has been identified as an industrially backward district. 1.1 Location & Geographical Area Geographical Location of Murshidabad district Name of Latitude Longitude Area the district North South East West Murshidabad 24º50'20"N 23º43'30"N 88º46'00"E 87º49'17"E 5324 sq.kms The district head quarters of Murshidabad is Berhampore which lies on the latitude 2408’ North & longitude 8816’ East. It is the northern most district of Presidency Division of West Bengal and is situated in the lower Gangetic valley. In terms of area, the district occupies 6.07 per cent of the total area of the State. Murshidabad district is bounded by Santhal Parganas (Bihar) and Birbhum in the West, the districts of Malda, & Nadia in the North, Bangladesh in the East and Districts of Burdwan & Nadia in the South. The rivers Ganges & Padma flow from the northern & eastern boundary of the district whereas the river Jalangi runs along the Southern boundary for a considerable stretch. 4 1.2 Topography Beside historical importance, the district ‘Murshidabad’ has occupied a distinctive position in the ‘Agriculture Map’ of the State of West Bengal as because the soil, weather & climate of this district permit multiple cultivation. In fact, the river Bhagirathi has distinctly divided this district into two zones viz. ‘RARH’ and ‘BAGRI’ which are situated on the Western and Eastern sides of the river Bhagirathi respectively. The structure and texture of soil of two zones are also different. The soil of RARH is mostly clay and lateritic clay type, comparatively heavy, gray or reddish in colour. The land is high and slightly undulating having gentle slop from West to East. The soil of the area is generally low in carbon content and acidic to neutral in reaction. The main crops are paddy, potato but oil seed and vegetables are cultivated successfully in all the three seasons. On the other hand, the soil of BAGRI is mainly alluvial type with comparatively light texture, low in organic carbon content and soil reaction is slightly acidic to neutral. The principal crops are Jute, Paddy, etc. The district is well-drained by a number of rivers and rivulets. The important rivers amongst them being the Ganges and its tributaries namely the Bhagirathi, the Jalangi and the Bhairab. The Ganges first touches the district at its extreme northern point and flows almost due South-East and then gets bifurcation into two major streams, viz. Bhagirathi & Padma at Nurpur. The Bhagirathi which branches off from the Ganges flows from North to South dividing the district into almost two equal parts. The Jalangi start its courses in the Jalangi Police Station area on the East of the district & Bhagirathi branches off from Padma in the Lalgola Police Station area. The river Mayurakshi enters the district through Kandi Sub-division. It is worth mentioning that the Bhagirathi which had become non-navigable has been made navigable again with the construction of Farakka Barrage. 1.3 Availability of Minerals PRODUCTION OF MINERAL 2010-11 S.NO.
