Baghbazar Ghats



Kolkata has brought up by the lovely care of the river Hoogly. The British came in Kolkata in waterways, & they choosed Kolkata. But unfortunately, all of we are going to forget the importance of it, to restore the glamorous past of the North Kolkata, and nowadays, the riverbanks have never being any importance issue to the politicians, so it never got any importance. Only Sudip Bandyopadhyay, Parimal Biswas& Tarak Banerjee are only representatives who took initiative for restoration of few Ghats
We should concentrate our focus to the Northern part, especially only at Baghbazar. In present experience, we have seen that restoration has been initiated by some local & national organizations, but in this process, the entire history was deleted. But these ghats are part & parcel of the old Babu Culture of Kolkata’s History. They are the living witness of the three hundred years of Kolkata. Our Motto is to restore them, as we can’t ignore our past, to make the future.
