Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Sabarna Roy Choudhury family was the zamindar (landlord) of the Kolkata (earlier known as Calcutta) area, prior to the arrival of the British. On November 10 1698, they transferred, by lease, their rights over the three villages Sutanuti, Kalikata and Gobindapur - to the East India Company. The family is also known as Sabarna Choudhury. Panchanan Gangopadhyay (Panchu Saktikhan) of the family acquired the Khan title from the Mughal Emperor Humayun in the fifteenth century, for his bravery as a cavalry in charge of Pathan soldiers. Around the middle of that century he constructed a palace at a place which came to be known as Haveli Sahar or Halisahar. It was from Halisahar that the family spread far and wide, including, to Uttarpara, Birati and Barisha.
