Sagarpara is a Small town in Jalangi subdivision of Murshidabad district in the India . It has a population of around 25,000, mostly agricultural workers, and supports both Hindu and Muslim communities. It lies at the geographic co-ordinates of latitude 24.238609, longitude 88.697776. There is a masjid situated near Sagarpara Bazaar, opposite Sagarpara High School. Sagarpara is located under Jalangi police station in West Bengal. It is 2.5 kilometres from the Padma River. ==History== Like many other small towns in Ganges Delta, Sagarpara was a small river port during the time of Mughal. Until the year of Indian independence in 1947, it was just a small village backed by a port to ferry jute through Jalangi River, a tributary of Padma River. The Partition of India saw Sagarpara grow due to an influx of settlers from East Bengal. The Bangladesh Liberation War in 1971 saw another surge of refugees in this town located only 2.5 kilometres from the Bangladesh border. Population and commerce in Sagarpara was growing fast after 1971 due to new settlers who preferred to build a house in this town due to its high land surrounded by small rivers. The town does not get flooded because it is located on the high natural barrage side of the river. It survived like a water-locked island during devastating floods of 1978 and 1997, which forced its neighboring population to migrate into the town. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sagarpara」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
