The objective of creation of the faculty was to initiate education and training in horticulture, to conduct need-based research for the development of horticulture in West Bengal, and to disseminate the technology for growing horticultural crops and post harvest management of produce.<br /> <br /> Initially the faculty functioned with very limited space in the Faculty of Agriculture. Now it is housed in the newly constructed faculty building at Mohanpur. The instructional facilities include one horticultural farm at Mondouri and one nursery at Jagulia. The UG classes are held at Jagulia where a small instructional farm is maintained. The 150-acre farm at Mondouri that is the Horticultural Research Station provides facilities for practical and project works of M.Sc. and Ph.D. students for all the departments under this faculty.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web |url= http://www.bckv.edu.in/bckv.php?page=1f0e3dad99908345f7439f8ffabdffc413 |title= Faculty of Horticulture |publisher= Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya |access-date= 19 September 2017 }}&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> {{clear}}<br /> &lt;!-- Please do not add new entries to this list.

A substantial number of research projects under programmes and funding modes operate on farmers’ fields (on-farm trials, FLD trials) at three major agro-climatic regions of the state and at other zones across West Bengal. Several experiments are conducted in a scientist&amp;ndash;farmer participatory manner.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.bckv.edu.in/bckv.php?page=c81e728d9d4c2f636f067f89cc14862c2|title=Directorate of Research|publisher=Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya|access-date=19 September 2017}}&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> ===Directorate of Extension Education===<br /> <br /> The Directorate of Extension Education, in the Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya, was created in 1994 through upgrading the Field Extension Wing, which took care of mainly the farm advisory services among a few villages surrounding the headquarters campus of the Viswavidyalaya. The upgrade attempt, though initiated late, was made in line with the mandate of the SAUs to organize &quot;first line extension&quot; activities to complement their research and education role, as well as to strengthen the efforts of the state extension machinery towards transferring proven and tested technological options for increased production and productivity. However, the manpower, as well as the infrastructure, corresponding to the enlargement of the mandated roles and responsibilities assumed by the directorate, consequent to its upgrade, continued to remain inadequate.<br /> <br /> The roles and responsibilities of the Directorate of Extension Education were enlarged to accommodate the recommendations of the Randhawa Committee (1978) and the National Commission on Agriculture (1976). These recommendations, inter-alta, suggested a complementary role for the education and research for organizing the extension functions through the following sets of interrelated activities:<br /> *Technology Refinement and Upgradation<br /> *Technology Integration<br /> *Publication, Demonstration &amp; Information Assistance<br /> *Participatory Techniques for Research and Extension<br /> *Training Module Development<br /> *Capacity Building&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.bckv.edu.in/bckv.php?page=eccbc87e4b5ce2fe28308fd9f2a7baf33|title=Directorate of Extension Education|publisher=Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya|access-date=19 September 2017}}&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> ===Directorate of Farms===<br /> The Directorate of Farms functions in the realm of agricultural research, education, and extension. The directorate has 1340.6 acres of land distributed in 12 farms.

BCKV.jpg|thumb|Faculty of Hort. BCKV]]<br /> <br /> The Faculty of Horticulture was established in 1996. The objective of creation of the faculty was to initiate education and training in horticulture, to conduct need-based research for the development of horticulture in West Bengal, and to disseminate the technology for growing horticultural crops and post harvest management of produce.<br /> <br /> Initially the faculty functioned with very limited space in the Faculty of Agriculture. Now it is housed in the newly constructed faculty building at Mohanpur. The instructional facilities include one horticultural farm at Mondouri and one nursery at Jagulia. The UG classes are held at Jagulia where a small instructional farm is maintained. The 150-acre farm at Mondouri that is the Horticultural Research Station provides facilities for practical and project works of M.Sc. and Ph.D. students for all the departments under this faculty.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web |url= http://www.bckv.edu.in/bckv.php?page=1f0e3dad99908345f7439f8ffabdffc413 |title= Faculty of Horticulture |publisher= Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya |access-date= 19 September 2017 }}&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> {{clear}}<br /> &lt;!-- Please do not add new entries to this list.

A substantial number of research projects under programmes and funding modes operate on farmers’ fields (on-farm trials, FLD trials) at three major agro-climatic regions of the state and at other zones across West Bengal. Several experiments are conducted in a scientist&amp;ndash;farmer participatory manner.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.bckv.edu.in/bckv.php?page=c81e728d9d4c2f636f067f89cc14862c2|title=Directorate of Research|publisher=Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya|access-date=19 September 2017}}&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> ===Directorate of Extension Education===<br /> <br /> The Directorate of Extension Education, in the Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya, was created in 1994 through upgrading the Field Extension Wing, which took care of mainly the farm advisory services among a few villages surrounding the headquarters campus of the Viswavidyalaya. The upgrade attempt, though initiated late, was made in line with the mandate of the SAUs to organize &quot;first line extension&quot; activities to complement their research and education role, as well as to strengthen the efforts of the state extension machinery towards transferring proven and tested technological options for increased production and productivity. However, the manpower, as well as the infrastructure, corresponding to the enlargement of the mandated roles and responsibilities assumed by the directorate, consequent to its upgrade, continued to remain inadequate.<br /> <br /> The roles and responsibilities of the Directorate of Extension Education were enlarged to accommodate the recommendations of the Randhawa Committee (1978) and the National Commission on Agriculture (1976). These recommendations, inter-alta, suggested a complementary role for the education and research for organizing the extension functions through the following sets of interrelated activities:<br /> *Technology Refinement and Upgradation<br /> *Technology Integration<br /> *Publication, Demonstration &amp; Information Assistance<br /> *Participatory Techniques for Research and Extension<br /> *Training Module Development<br /> *Capacity Building&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.bckv.edu.in/bckv.php?page=eccbc87e4b5ce2fe28308fd9f2a7baf33|title=Directorate of Extension Education|publisher=Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya|access-date=19 September 2017}}&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> ===Directorate of Farms===<br /> The Directorate of Farms functions in the realm of agricultural research, education, and extension. The directorate has 1340.6 acres of land distributed in 12 farms.

The fort is situated at a latitude of 20°25’16&quot; north and longitude of 85°48’25&quot; east and at an elevation of 100 feet above sea level. It is about 14&amp;nbsp;km north of [[Bhubaneswar]] in the village Baranga of [[Cuttack]] tehsil and district.<br /> <br /> == Location ==<br /> It is 9.00&amp;nbsp;km south-west of Cuttack near the Baranga Railway station of the East-coast railways. The site can also be approached from Bhubaneswar through the Bhubanesvar-Cuttack road via Nandankanan and Baranga. From Baranga one has to negotiate a distance of 1.5&amp;nbsp;km north of Sitaram chowk to reach the site that is situated on the right bank of the river [[Prachi River|Prachi]]. The landmarks around the fort are Zoological Park of [[Nandankanan Zoological Park|Nandankanan]] on its north at a distance of 1.5&amp;nbsp;km, river Prachi (otherwise known as Baranga River) on its south at a distance of 0.5&amp;nbsp;km and Chandaka forest closely attached to the fort on its west, and Baranga Police station on its east at a distance of 0.5&amp;nbsp;km. The site has ruins and vestiges extending over an area more than 1000 acres of land within a fortification made of large sized dressed laterite blocks.<br /> <br /> ==Traditions &amp; legends==<br /> According to the Madalapanji, the fort was constructed by Lalatendu Kesari of [[Kesari dynasty]] (otherwise known as Somavamsis) when it was known as Sarangagarh, because the area had large number of water bodies filled with lotus and in Sanskrit, Saranga means lotus. Later on Baraha Kesari renovated the fort, which was captured by Ganga king Chodaganga Deva after defeating Karna Deva, the last ruler of the Somavamsi dynasty in 1110 AD. There after the fort of Sarangagada became known as Chudangagada after the name of the victor Anantavarman Chodaganga Deva.<br /> <br /> This is a protected monument of [[Archaeological Survey of India]] notification no. S.R.C 303 dated 23.02.1951<br /> <br /> ==Age==<br /> The fort dates back to 9th century A.D. This has been inferred from the records of Lalatendu Kesari.<br /> <br /> ==Property Type==<br /> i) Precinct/ Building/ Structure/Landscape/Site/Tank : Archaeological site&lt;br /&gt;<br /> ii) Subtype: Metropolitan establishment&lt;br /&gt;<br /> iii) Typology: Fort<br /> <br /> ==Property use==<br /> i) Abandoned/ in use: Abandoned&lt;br /&gt;<br /> ii) Past use: Military cantonment and royal residential complex<br /> <br /> ==Significance==<br /> The fort was constructed by the Keshari dynasty. It comes under the protected monuments of the Archaeological survey of India.<br /> <br /> ==Physical description==<br /> <br /> ===Surrounding===<br /> The fort is surrounded by Chandaka forest with its hills and hillock on the south, north and west and Baranga Police station on its east at a distance of 0.5&amp;nbsp;km.<br /> <br /> ===Orientation===<br /> The fort is oriented east-west longitudinally.<br /> <br /> ===Architectural features===<br /> The fort has a rectangular plan that measures 1700 m x 1500 m, within which there are several ancient remains and ruins such as&lt;br /&gt;<br /> i- Solapuri Uasa ( a palace of sixteen rooms)&lt;br /&gt;<br /> ii-Chaula ghara ( granary)&lt;br /&gt; <br /> iii- water bodies&lt;br /&gt;<br /> iv-religious shrines&lt;br /&gt;<br /> Solapuri Uasa or the palace of sixteen rooms occupied an area of about 25 acres. On plan the remains extends over an area that measures 386 metres x 217 metres. It is said that, there were sixteen rooms inside the palace but the exploration could locate only nine blocks of various size. The largest one measured 141.00 m x 121.00 m with a height of 4.00 m and thickness of 2 .00 m. The smallest block measured 42.00 m x 34.00 m with a height 1.30 m and thickness of 1.80 m. Large sized dressed sandstone and laterite blocks have been used for the construction of the building. On the average these blocks measure 1.10 m x 1.30 m. Architectural remains like pillars fragments, lintels, and temple fragments like Chandrasilas, and stone blocks of hexagonal, octagonal, square shape are also found. In this area of the fort, there are the ruins of a temple that was made of sandstone. Towards the north-eastern corner of the fort and south of Chudanga jhil, large quantity of charred rice are found, which is locally known as Chaula ghara or The Granary. This patch of land is under the cultivation. One of the important features of this fort is the presence of large number of water bodies such as<br /> * Chudanga jhil<br /> * Cheddagadia<br /> * Gangua<br /> * Nahuagenja<br /> * Bada pokhari<br /> * Sana pokhari<br /> * Khiragadia<br /> * Kiakani jhil<br /> * Kanjia jhil<br /> * Dubala chhatra<br /> * Routa gadia<br /> * Rani gadhua pokhari<br /> * Hati gadhua pokhari<br /> * Bhai bahu dedhasura pokhari<br /> * Padma pokhari<br /> <br /> ===Building material===<br /> The fort is made up of sandstone &amp; laterite.<br /> <br /> ===Construction===<br /> Dry masonry<br /> <br /> ===Special features===<br /> Large number of water bodies are also found in the fort area.<br /> <br /> ==State of preservation==<br /> The site, though protected, has largely been encroached upon by local cultivators.<br /> <br /> ==Threats to the property==<br /> <br /> ===Conservation problem and remedies===<br /> i- The fort is encroached by the local cultivators and residents. There are near about 50 houses with a population of 300 people inside the fort area.&lt;br /&gt;<br /> ii- Besides that, some years before a Bengali contractor removed large number of stones from the protection wall of Solapuri uasa for the construction of a canal. The site is covered by a compound wall made of laterite that measures 1700 m in length x<br /> 1500 m in width, with a thickness of 2.30 m and height of 14.00 m as available at present.<br /> <br /> ==Other archaeological findings==<br /> Among other archaeological findings of the site are potteries, and iron objects&lt;br /&gt;<br /> i- Potteries like Red ware, Red-slip ware, Black ware, Black slipped ware etc.&lt;br /&gt;<br /> ii- Iron objects like iron clamps, iron hooks, nails, daggers, swords, arrow heads etc.&lt;br /&gt;<br /> iii- Fragment of a stone ware, broken pieces of lamps and broken pieces of a Udyota simha<br /> <br /> == References ==<br /> &lt;!--- See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Footnotes on how to create references using &lt;ref&gt;&lt;/ref&gt; tags which will then appear here automatically --&gt;<br /> {{Reflist}}<br /> * Lesser Known Monuments of Bhubaneswar by Dr. Sadasiba Pradhan ({{ISBN|81-7375-164-1}})<br /> * [[List of Hindu temples in India]]<br /> <br /> &lt;!--- Categories ---&gt;<br /> [[Category:Forts in Odisha]]</div> Pinakpani https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Chudanga_Gada&diff=1252429947 Chudanga Gada 2024-10-21T09:22:33Z <p>Pinakpani: Copyedit (minor)</p> <hr /> <div>{{Infobox Hindu temple<br /> | name = Chudanga Gada<br /> | image = <br /> | map_type = India Odisha#India<br /> | map_caption = Location in Odisha<br /> | coordinates = {{coord|20|25|16|N|85|48|25|E|type:landmark_region:IN|display=inline,title}}<br /> | country = [[India]]<br /> | state = [[Odisha]]<br /> | district = <br /> | locale = [[Bhubaneswar]]<br /> | elevation_m = 30<br /> | deity = [[Mahishamardini]]<br /> | festivals= <br /> | architecture = Kalingan Style ([[Kalinga Architecture]])<br /> | temple_quantity = <br /> | monument_quantity= <br /> | inscriptions = <br /> | year_completed = 12th century A.D.<br /> }}<br /> '''Chudanga Gada''', formerly known as Sarangagarh, is a fort in [[Odisha]] state of India.

She has drawn the same picture over all the walls. The story then goes to flashback.<br /> <br /> Rano is an aspiring filmmaker who wants to make a documentary on 'Lakshmi's Bari', a supposedly haunted place situated on the banks of [[Ajay River|Ajay river]] on the outskirts of [[Bolpur]]. Rano, his girlfriend Shreya, Shreya's friend Pritha and her boyfriend Debu travel to the place on the evening prior to B''hoot Chaturdashi''.<br /> <br /> It is revealed that ''Lakshmi'' was an illegal child of the Tagore family, and she was raised at a palace made for her. People believed that she might be a witch and hence, she was sacrificed to Goddess [[Chamunda]] by burning her alive, but while burning she ran away and was never found. Rano and his team were warned to not go into that house which is believed to be haunted but he started exploring the house with a camera, while Pritha and Debu, in spite of having no interest in going there, started exploring. Meanwhile, Shreya found an anklet while Rano found a skeleton, implying that the ritual of sacrifice might survive. While they are busy shooting and exploring, a child runs around whom they didn't notice.<br /> <br /> After they finish shooting they reach a river bank. Rano and the others are relaxing there when they encounter a gathering of villagers and ''tantriks'' where a cremation is taking place. They learn that that day is ''bhoot chaturdashi'', when this type of thing occurs. While they head back they find a strange looking idol in the middle of the road that appears again during their journey. At that point they realize that something sinister is there so they want out. After driving without having a proper way out, they somehow reach Lakshmi's ''bari''. This time they hear a child's laughter. While Shreya tells them that Lakshmi might want to say something, Debu becomes frightened when a chunk of cement falls near him. He wants to get away. They flee in spite of Shreya's unwillingness. Their car runs out of fuel and Debu blame Rano for everything. After a heated argument, an upset Rano pushes Debu, who, in a fit of rage, wants to beat Rono but is taken away by an unseen force. They all run but somehow end up at Lakshmi's bari, with no exit. Meanwhile, Pritha, now possessed, falls into the well and dies. Suddenly, the premises light up with candles to reveal a group of people with ''tantriks'', gathering to perform a sacrifice. Suddenly Shreya figures out that Rano is missing and, after hearing his scream, she realizes that he is kept in a 'harikatha' and was beheaded by a ''tantrik''. On the outskirts of town, villagers who are actively taking part in the ritual arevealed to have been possessed or dead.<br /> <br /> In the present, Shreya is drawing Lakshmi's picture all over the walls and repeatedly saying that if Lakshmi wants to play with you, you must play with her.

She has drawn the same picture over all the walls. The story then goes to flashback.<br /> <br /> Rano is an aspiring filmmaker who wants to make a documentary on 'Lakshmi's Bari', a supposedly haunted place situated on the banks of [[Ajay River|Ajay river]] on the outskirts of [[Bolpur]]. Rano, his girlfriend Shreya, Shreya's friend Pritha and her boyfriend Debu travel to the place on the evening prior to B''hoot Chaturdashi''.<br /> <br /> After reaching Bolpur, they gather information about the place. It is then revealed that Lakshmi is the illegal child of the Tagore family, and she was raised at a palace made for her. People believed that she might be a witch and hence, she was sacrificed to Goddess [[Chamunda]] by burning her alive, but while burning she ran away and was never found. Rano and his team were warned to not go into that house which is believed to be haunted.<br /> <br /> After reaching that place, Rano started exploring the house with a camera, while Pritha and Debu, in spite of having no interest in going there, started exploring. Meanwhile, Shreya found an anklet while Rano found a skeleton, implying that the ritual of sacrifice might survive. While they are busy shooting and exploring, a child runs around whom they didn't notice. <br /> <br /> After they finish shooting they reach a river bank. Rano and the others are relaxing there when they encounter a gathering of villagers and ''tantriks'' where a cremation is taking place. They learn that that day is ''bhoot chaturdashi'', when this type of thing occurs. While they head back they find a strange looking idol in the middle of the road that appears again during their journey. At that point they realize that something sinister is there so they want out. After driving without having a proper way out, they somehow reach Lakshmi's ''bari''. This time they hear a child's laughter. While Shreya tells them that Lakshmi might want to say something, Debu becomes frightened when a chunk of cement falls near him. He wants to get away. They flee in spite of Shreya's unwillingness. Their car runs out of fuel and Debu blame Rano for everything. After a heated argument, an upset Rano pushes Debu, who, in a fit of rage, wants to beat Rono but is taken away by an unseen force. They all run but somehow end up at Lakshmi's bari, with no exit. Meanwhile, Pritha, now possessed, falls into the well and dies. Suddenly, the premises light up with candles to reveal a group of people with ''tantriks'', gathering to perform a sacrifice. Suddenly Shreya figures out that Rano is missing and, after hearing his scream, she realizes that he is kept in a 'harikatha' and was beheaded by a ''tantrik''. On the outskirts of town, villagers who are actively taking part in the ritual arevealed to have been possessed or dead.<br /> <br /> In the present, Shreya is drawing Lakshmi's picture all over the walls and repeatedly saying that if Lakshmi wants to play with you, you must play with her. It is then revealed that she is possessed by the ghost of Lakshmi.<br /> <br /> In the final scene, Lakshmi in her deathbed attire, sitting in her palace presents an eerie smile on her burned face and the credits roll.&lt;ref&gt;{{Citation|title=Bhoot Chaturdashi Movie Review {1.0/5}: Critic Review of Bhoot Chaturdashi by Times of India|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/bengali/movie-reviews/bhoot-chaturdashi/movie-review/69424580.cms|access-date=2 April 2020}}&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Cast==<br /> * [[Aryann Bhowmik]] as Rono<br /> * [[Ena Saha]] as Shreya<br /> * Soumendra Bhattacharya as Debu<br /> * Deepsheta Mitra as Pritha<br /> <br /> == Soundtrack ==<br /> The music was composed by [[Indraadip Dasgupta]], and features the song &quot;Bhoy Korche&quot; with lyrics by Ritam Sen and performed by [[Armeen Musa]].{{citation needed|date=July 2020}}<br /> <br /> {{track listing<br /> | headline = Track listing<br /> | total_length = <br /> | extra_column = Singer<br /> | title1 = Bhoy Korche<br /> | length1 = 3:08<br /> | extra1 = [[Armeen Musa]]<br /> }}<br /> <br /> ==References==<br /> {{Reflist}}<br /> <br /> ==External links==<br /> * {{IMDb title|10585038}}<br /> {{Shree Venkatesh Films}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Bengali-language Indian films]]<br /> [[Category:2010s Bengali-language films]]<br /> [[Category:2010s adventure films]]<br /> [[Category:Indian adventure films]]<br /> [[Category:Indian horror films]]<br /> [[Category:2019 horror films]]<br /> [[Category:2019 films]]<br /> [[Category:Adventure horror films]]</div> Pinakpani https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Birohi_(TV_series)&diff=1251084002 Birohi (TV series) 2024-10-14T09:22:32Z <p>Pinakpani: </p> <hr /> <div>{{Short description|Bengali web series}}<br /> {{Use dmy dates|date=December 2023}}<br /> {{Use Indian English|date=December 2023}}<br /> {{Infobox television<br /> | image = <br /> | caption = <br /> | director = Pradipta Bhattacharyya<br /> | country = India<br /> | genre = [[Comedy drama]]<br /> | num_seasons = 1<br /> | num_episodes = 6<br /> | language = Bengali<br /> | company = One Eighty Degree<br /> | network = Uribaba<br /> | first_aired = {{Start date|df=yes|2021|09|10}}<br /> | last_aired = <br /> | producer = [[Ritwick Chakraborty]]&lt;br&gt; Pradipta Bhattacharyya<br /> | music = [[Satyaki Banerjee]]<br /> }}<br /> <br /> '''''Birohi''''' is a [[Bengali language|Bengali]]-language [[streaming television]] series&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|title=Birohi (2021) - Review, Star Cast, News, Photos|url=https://www.cinestaan.com/movies/birohi-47256|access-date=2021-10-24|website=Cinestaan|archive-date=2021-09-24|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210924064934/https://www.cinestaan.com/movies/birohi-47256|url-status=live}}&lt;/ref&gt; directed by Pradipta Bhattacharyya,&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|last=পডকাস্ট|first=এবিপি|date=2021-09-01|title=টলি টেইলস । Tolly Tales । কথোপকথনে পরিচালক প্রদীপ্ত ভট্টাচার্য্য|url=https://bengali.abplive.com/podcasts/tolly-tales/an-exclusive-interview-of-bengali-filmmaker-pradipta-bhattacharyya-832526|access-date=2021-10-24|website=bengali.abplive.com|language=bn|archive-date=2021-10-24|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211024181157/https://bengali.abplive.com/podcasts/tolly-tales/an-exclusive-interview-of-bengali-filmmaker-pradipta-bhattacharyya-832526|url-status=live}}&lt;/ref&gt; the National award-winning director of ''[[Bakita Byaktigato]]''&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|title=Pradipta Bhattacharya’s debut web series Birohi out on YouTube|url=https://www.ottplay.com/news/pradipta-bhattacharyas-debut-web-series-birohi-out-on-youtube/11d48264c8841|access-date=2021-10-24|website=OTTPlay|language=en|archive-date=2021-10-24|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211024154655/https://www.ottplay.com/news/pradipta-bhattacharyas-debut-web-series-birohi-out-on-youtube/11d48264c8841|url-status=live}}&lt;/ref&gt; released on the Uribaba [[Over-the-top media service in India|OTT]] platform,&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|title=Uribaba launches the trailer of 5MM On The Rock and Birohi|url=https://www.indulgexpress.com/galleries/parties/2021/aug/19/uribaba-launches-the-trailer-of-5mm-on-the-rock-and-birohi-1428.html|access-date=2021-10-24|website=www.indulgexpress.com|language=en|archive-date=2021-10-24|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211024163339/https://www.indulgexpress.com/galleries/parties/2021/aug/19/uribaba-launches-the-trailer-of-5mm-on-the-rock-and-birohi-1428.html|url-status=live}}&lt;/ref&gt; the first independent free content station of [[West Bengal]].&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|title=Uribaba Ott Platform: 'উরিবাবা'!

It appeared that Rajib Lochan's life was in danger. When Surajit visited his house the zaminder had already been murdered. Detective Surajit started an investigation while staying at the house. He saw a nurse, Anima, appointed for Rajib Lochan and recalled that this lady went to him with the proposal of theft . There were several relatives and servants in the house but most of them concealed some other facts from him.

It is also a municipality and Community Development Block in Nadia. It is located around 40 kilometers from [[Kolkata]]&amp;nbsp;— the capital of [[West Bengal]]. Kalyani is the administrative headquarters of [[Kalyani subdivision]]. It resides on the eastern banks of [[Hooghly River]], and is part of the [[Kolkata Metropolitan Development Authority]] (KMDA).<br /> <br /> During the period of [[World War II]], the surroundings of the then ''Chandamari'' village was used as an [[air base]] by the [[United States Army Air Forces]], and was known by the name of &quot;Roosevelt Town&quot; or &quot;Roosevelt Nagar&quot;, after then [[US President]] [[Franklin D. Roosevelt]]. Later, after the [[surrender of Japan]] and the [[independence of India]], the air base was abandoned. On the same area, a planned town named &quot;Kalyani&quot; was developed by the [[Government of West Bengal]] in 1951 on the behest of [[Bidhan Chandra Roy]] – the second [[List of Chief Ministers of West Bengal|Chief Minister of West Bengal]] – for hosting the [[Indian National Congress]] meeting and to accommodate the housing needs of the growing population of Calcutta. Kalyani, being a planned town, is characterized by underground sewage system, paved roads forming rectangular grids, tree-lined avenues and community parks. <br /> <br /> Kalyani has a dedicated industrial zone including [[Andrew Yule and Company]], Kalyani Breweries ([[UB Group]]), Black Label beer and [[Dabur]], [[TDK]], though many of the industries have either closed or stopped production. It is an important centre of education in West Bengal, with two universities ([[University of Kalyani]] and [[Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya]]), [[IISER Kolkata|IISER]], [[Indian Institute of Information Technology, Kalyani|IIIT Kalyani]], [[All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Kalyani]], [[College of Medicine &amp; JNM Hospital]], [[Kalyani Government Engineering College]] and other institutes of higher education and research. [[Kalyani Stadium]] has emerged as an alternative location to [[Kolkata]] for holding numerous [[I-League]] football matches and other sporting events. The Bengal Cricket Academy and a stadium have been established by [[Cricket Association of Bengal]] in Kalyani for promotion and development of cricket.&lt;ref name=cricacademy&gt;{{cite news|title=CAB's first cricket academy inaugurated|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/sports/new-zealand-in-india-2016/top-stories/cabs-first-cricket-academy-inaugurated/articleshow/9862464.cms|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130821002920/http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2011-09-04/top-stories/30112129_1_nca-national-cricket-academy-sandip-patil|url-status=live|archive-date=21 August 2013|access-date=8 May 2013|newspaper=[[The Times of India]]|date=4 September 2011}}&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> ==History==<br /> Kalyani, located in Nadia district in the state of West Bengal, is a relatively young town.

Roosevelt]] as &quot;Roosevelt Town&quot; or &quot;Roosevelt ''Nagar''&quot;, with &quot;nagar&quot; meaning &quot;town&quot; in many [[Indo-Aryan languages]], including [[Bengali language|Bengali]]. Hangars and other reminders of the airfield are still visible in the 'A' Block and some areas around Kalyani University, whose buildings were built on or over the runways.&lt;ref name=&quot;kalyanihistory&quot; /&gt; After [[World War II]], the [[United States Army Air Forces|United States Army Air Force]] left the base, and the airfield and hangars went into disuse.<br /> <br /> The development of modern Kalyani is credited to the former [[Chief Minister of West Bengal]], [[Bidhan Chandra Roy]]. After the [[independence of India]] in 1947, the master plan of the town was developed and the foundation stone for the town was laid by the then Governor of West Bengal, [[Kailashnath Katju]], on 24 February 1951.&lt;ref name=&quot;kalyanihistory&quot; /&gt; The town was built quickly in order to host the 59th [[Indian National Congress]] meeting in 1954. In memoriam of that conference, a road of the town was named as 'Congress Road'. In 1957, the Kalyani police station was formed, and in 1979, the rail line was extended from [[Kalyani main railway station|Kalyani Central]] to [[Kalyani Simanta railway station|Kalyani Simanta station]], and also established direct connectivity to Kolkata through Kalyani Simanta local EMU trains.&lt;ref name=&quot;kalyanihistory&quot; /&gt;<br /> <br /> In 1995, the Kalyani Municipality was established, which has been crucial in the development of infrastructure in Kalyani.&lt;ref name=kalyanihistory /&gt; In 2014, Kalyani was selected as a candidate for a &quot;Smart City&quot; project. Although this project has since been abandoned by the State Government.<br /> <br /> ==Geography and urban structure==<br /> Kalyani is located in the [[Nadia district]] of [[West Bengal]], within the [[Kolkata metropolitan area]]. Kalyani lies along the east bank of the [[Hooghly River]], within the upper [[Ganges Delta]].

In 1921 a committee of engineers named the 'Mukherjee Committee' was formed, headed by [[R. N. Mukherji]], Sir Clement Hindley, chairman of Calcutta Port Trust and J. McGlashan, Chief Engineer. They referred the matter to [[Basil Mott|Sir Basil Mott]], who proposed a single span [[arch bridge]].&lt;ref name='history'/&gt; Charles Alfred O'Grady one of the Engineers<br /> <br /> In 1922, set up, to which the Mukherjee Committee submitted its report.

Thompson, to investigate and report on the advisability of constructing a pier bridge between Calcutta and Howrah. Based on their recommendation, M/s.

McGlashan, wanted to replace the pontoon bridge, with a permanent structure, as the present bridge interfered with north–south river traffic. Work could not be started as World War I (1914–1918) broke out. Then in 1926 a commission under the chairmanship of Sir R. N. Mukherjee recommended a suspension bridge of a particular type to be built across the River Hoogly. The bridge was designed by one Mr. Walton of M/s Rendel, Palmer &amp; Triton. The order for construction and erection was placed on [[Cleveland Bridge &amp; Engineering Company|M/s.Cleveland Bridge &amp; Engineering Company]] in 1939. Again World War II (1939–1945) intervened. All the steel that was to come from England were diverted for war effort in Europe. Out of 26,000 tons of steel, that was required for the bridge, only 3000 tons were supplied from England. In spite of the Japanese threat, the then (British) government of India pressed on with the construction. Tata Steel were asked to supply the remaining 23,000 tons of high tension steel. The Tatas developed the quality of steel required for the bridge and called it Tiscrom. The entire 23,000 tons was supplied in time. The fabrication and erection work was awarded to a local engineering firm of Howrah: the [[Braithwaite, Burn &amp; Jessop Construction Company|Braithwaite, Burn &amp; Jessop Construction Co.]] The two anchorage caissons were each 16.4 m by 8.2 m, with two wells 4.9 m square. The caissons were so designed that the working chambers within the shafts could be temporarily enclosed by steel diaphragms to allow work under compressed air if required.&lt;ref name='sing'/&gt; The caisson at Kolkata side was set at 31.41 m and that at Howrah side at 26.53 m below ground level.&lt;ref name='tech'/&gt;<br /> <br /> One night, during the process of grabbing out the muck to enable the caisson to move, the ground below it yielded, and the entire mass plunged two feet, shaking the ground. The impact of this was so intense that the [[seismograph]] at [[Kidderpore]] registered it as an [[earthquake]] and a [[Hindu]] [[temple]] on the shore was destroyed, although it was subsequently rebuilt.&lt;ref name='tele1'&gt;{{cite news|url=http://www.telegraphindia.com/1080706/jsp/calcutta/story_9501358.jsp|archive-url=https://archive.today/20130203133021/http://www.telegraphindia.com/1080706/jsp/calcutta/story_9501358.jsp|url-status=dead|archive-date=3 February 2013|title=Cat's cradle of steel|access-date=2011-11-21 | location=Calcutta, India|work=The Telegraph|first=Soumitra|last=Das|date=6 July 2008}}&lt;/ref&gt; While muck was being cleared, numerous varieties of objects were brought up, including anchors, grappling irons, cannons, cannonballs, brass vessels, and coins dating back to the [[East India Company]].<br /> The job of sinking the caissons was carried out round-the-clock at a rate of a foot or more per day.&lt;ref name=&quot;tele1&quot;/&gt; The caissons were sunk through soft river deposits to a stiff yellow clay 26.5 m below ground level. The accuracy of sinking the huge caissons was exceptionally precise, within 50–75&amp;nbsp;mm of the true position. After penetrating 2.1 m into clay, all shafts were plugged with [[concrete]] after individual dewatering, with some 5 m of backfilling in adjacent shafts.&lt;ref name='sing'/&gt; The main [[pier]]s on the Howrah side were sunk by open wheel [[dredging]], while those on the Kolkata side required compressed air to counter running sand. The air pressure maintained was about 40&amp;nbsp;lbs per square inch (2.8 [[Bar (unit)|bar]]), which required about 500 workers to be employed.&lt;ref name='hosanna'/&gt; Whenever excessively soft soil was encountered, the shafts symmetrical to the caisson axes were left unexcavated to allow strict control. In very stiff clays, a large number of the internal wells were completely undercut, allowing the whole weight of the caisson to be carried by the outside [[Parasitic drag#Skin friction|skin friction]] and the [[Bearing (mechanical)|bearing]] under the external wall. Skin friction on the outside of the monolith walls was estimated at 29&amp;nbsp;kN/m&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; while loads on the cutting edge in clay overlying the founding stratum reached 100 tonnes/m.&lt;ref name='sing'/&gt; The work on the foundation was completed in November 1938.<br /> <br /> By the end of 1940, the erection of the cantilevered arms was commenced and was completed in mid-summer of 1941. The two halves of the suspended span, each 282 feet (86 m) long and weighing 2,000 tons, were built in December 1941. The bridge was erected by commencing at the two anchor spans and advancing towards the center, with the use of creeper cranes moving along the upper chord. 16 [[Jack (device)#Hydraulic jack|hydraulic jacks]], each of which had an 800-ton capacity, were pressed into service to join the two halves of the suspended span.&lt;ref name='viktor'/&gt;<br /> <br /> The entire project cost {{Indian Rupee}}25 million ([[Pound sterling|£]]2,463,887).&lt;ref name='history'/&gt; The project was a pioneer in bridge construction, particularly in India, but the government did not have a formal opening of the bridge due to fears of attacks by Japanese planes fighting the [[Allies of World War II|Allied Powers]].

As such, it carries the near entirety of the traffic to and from the station, taking its average daily traffic close to nearly 150,000 pedestrians and 100,000 vehicles.&lt;ref name='drop'/&gt; In 1946, a census of the daily traffic was taken, which counted 27,400 vehicles, 121,100 pedestrians and 2,997 cattle.&lt;ref name='hosanna'/&gt; The bulk of the vehicular traffic comes from buses and cars. Prior to 1993, the bridge also carried trams. [[Calcutta Tramways Company|Trams]] departed from the terminus at Howrah station towards [[Sealdah]], [[Rajabazar, Kolkata|Rajabazar]], [[Shyambazar]], [[Calcutta High Court|High Court]], [[Dalhousie Square]], [[Park Circus]], [[Ballygunge]], [[Tollygunge]] etc. In 1993, tram service on the bridge was discontinued due to the increasing load on the structure. However, the bridge still continues to carry much more than the expected load. A 2007 report revealed that nearly 90,000 vehicles were plying on the bridge daily (15,000 of which were goods-carrying), though its load-bearing capacity is only 60,000.&lt;ref name=bridgehistory&gt;{{cite news|url=http://www.ijser.org/researchpaper%5CHowrah-Bridge-and-Second-Hooghly-Bridge-A-Comprehensive-Comparative-Study.pdf|title=Howrah Bridge and Second Hooghly Bridge: A Comprehensive Comparative Study|access-date=2014-11-02 | location=Calcutta, India|date=9 September 2013}}&lt;/ref&gt; One of the main reasons for the overloading was that, although vehicles carrying up to 15 tonnes are allowed on the structure, vehicles with 12-18 wheels and carrying loads up to 25 tonnes often plied on it. From 31 May 2007 onwards, overloaded trucks were banned from crossing the bridge and were redirected to the [[Vidyasagar Setu]] instead.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|url=http://www.telegraphindia.com/1070414/asp/calcutta/story_7644981.asp|archive-url=https://archive.today/20130203115113/http://www.telegraphindia.com/1070414/asp/calcutta/story_7644981.asp|url-status=dead|archive-date=3 February 2013|title=Howrah bridge ban|access-date=2011-11-21 | location=Calcutta, India|work=The Telegraph|date=14 April 2007}}&lt;/ref&gt; The road is flanked by footpaths {{convert|15|ft}} wide, which are thronged with pedestrians.&lt;ref name = &quot;tech&quot;/&gt;<br /> <br /> ===Maintenance===<br /> [[File:Howrah Bridge-1945 02.jpg|left|thumb|View of Howrah Bridge, {{circa|1945}}]]<br /> <br /> The [[Port of Kolkata|Kolkata Port Trust]] (KoPT) is vested with the maintenance of the bridge. The bridge has been subject to damage from vehicles due to rash driving, and corrosion due to atmospheric conditions and biological wastes. In October 2008, 6 high-tech surveillance cameras were placed to monitor the entire {{convert|705|m|ft}} long and {{convert|30|m|ft}} wide structure from the control room. Two of the cameras were placed under the floor of the bridge to track the movement of barges, steamers and boats on the river, while the other four were fixed to the first layer of beams — one at each end and two in the middle — to monitor vehicle movements. This was in response to substantial damage caused to the bridge from collisions with vehicles, so that compensation could be claimed from the miscreants.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|url=http://www.telegraphindia.com/1100515/jsp/calcutta/story_12452084.jsp|archive-url=https://archive.today/20130203131329/http://www.telegraphindia.com/1100515/jsp/calcutta/story_12452084.jsp|url-status=dead|archive-date=3 February 2013|title=Bridge bleeds, blow by blow|access-date=2011-11-21 | location=Calcutta, India|work=The Telegraph|first=Sanjay|last=Mandal|date=15 May 2010}}&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> Corrosion has been caused by bird droppings and human spitting. An investigation in 2003 revealed that as a result of prolonged chemical reaction caused by continuous collection of bird excreta, several joints and parts of the bridge were damaged.&lt;ref name='drop'/&gt; As an immediate measure, the Kolkata Port Trust engaged contractors to regularly clean the bird droppings, at an annual expense of {{INRconvert|500000}}.
