Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online.Rabindra Sarobar (previously known as Dhakuria Lake) is an artificial lake in south Kolkata. It is popularly referred to as the "Lungs of Calcutta". The name also refers to the area surrounding the lake. It is flanked by Southern Avenue to the North, Russa Road to the West, Dhakuria to the East and the Kolkata Suburban Railway tracks to the south. In the early 1920s, the Calcutta Improvement Trust (CIT), a body responsible for developmental work in the Kolkata metropolitan area, acquired about 192 acres (0.78 km2) of marshy jungles. Their intention was to develop the area for residential use improving the roads, raising and levelling some of the adjacent land and building lakes and parks. Excavation work was undertaken with the plan of creating a huge lake. Originally known as Dhakuria Lake, in May 1958, CIT renamed the lake as Rabindra Sarovar, as a tribute to the great Bengali writer and Nobel Laureate, Rabindranath Tagore.
