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 Beliaghata was one of them. It was considered to be a suburb beyond the limits of the Maratha Ditch.[2][3][4]

In 1889, the 'fringe areas' of Maniktala, Ultadanga and Beliaghata were added to the Kolkata Municipal Corporation.[5]

Geography

Beliaghata overall is a highly populated locality due to its residing poor to lower-middle-class people of the Kolkataian society. Low height house are the main cause of reduction for space of roads. Beliaghata is well connected by Beliaghata Main Road which is the only road suitable for proper transportation. Through Beliaghata, goes a Canal;at the side of which the Canal Side Road named as Chaulpatty Road help vehicles to move around through the densely populated Beliaghata. Mostly pedestrians can pass through the narrow roads of Beliaghata. Hem Chandra Naskar Road (C.I.T. Road) from CIT More and Raja Rajendra Lal Mitra Road from Alochhaya Cinema crossing connects Beleghata to Airport via VIP road.

Transport

Few AC buses ply on the Beliaghata Main Road, which is one of city's majority connector. It connects Eastern Metropolitan Bypass to Central Kolkata. Eastern Metropolitan Bypass, in short EM Bypass being the highway of Kolkata. Beliaghata Main Road is congested with Non-AC buses which ply from several parts of the city.

However, Beliaghata have Police Station in CIT More near Subhas Sarovar and this Police Station is in control of a huge area. Traffic being the main problem here, police are working hard to make smooth flow of vehicles. Belighata has 4 major crossing points one is CIT More, second lies between CIT More and Sealdah i.e. Alochhaya Cinema bus stop and third crossing over the Beleghata Canal (Khalpol) and the fourth itself in Sealdah which the major in city national railway station.
