Narkeldanga is a neighbourhood in Kolkata (formerly Calcutta) in Kolkata district in the Indian state of West Bengal.

History

The East India Company obtained from the Mughal emperor Farrukhsiyar, in 1717, the right to rent from 38 villages surrounding their settlement. Of these 5 lay across the Hooghly in what is now Howrah district. The remaining 33 villages were on the Calcutta side. After the fall of Siraj-ud-daulah, the last independent Nawab of Bengal, it purchased these villages in 1758 from Mir Jafar, and reorganised them. These villages were known en-bloc as Dihi Panchannagram and Narkeldanga was one of them. It was considered to be a suburb beyond the limits of the Maratha Ditch.[2][3][4]

Geography

Culture

The first Indian attempt, after Gerasim Lebedev’s pioneering efforts, to stage plays in Kolkata was made at Narkeldanga. In 1832, Prasanna Kumar Tagore built a makeshift auditorium in his house in Narkeldanga and staged some English plays. The efforts were followed up by others.[6]

There is a Jewish cemetery at Narkeldanga. The first burial was in 1812. Till 1947, there was a flourishing Jewish community in Kolkata, but in 2015, only 20 were left.[7][8][9]
