Itachuna Rajbari (Itachuna)

India / Bangla / Pandua / Itachuna / Itachuna Khanyan station rd
 resort, heritage
The other name of Itachuna is ‘Bargee Danga’. It has got its name from the ‘BARGEES’, the erstwhile Maratha warrior groups who invaded Bengal and finally settled in parts. One such faction, known as ‘KUNDANS’ later came to be known as ‘KUNDU’ of today. The ancestor Shri. Safallya Narayan Kundu, some 250 years back established this Rajbari. Later, Shri. Bijoy Narayan, grandson of Shri. Safallya Narayan took real initiative to build it further. Govt. Of India’s policy of abolishing Raj-culture hindered further flourishes of the Rajbari. It is the present inheritors of the family Shri. Rabindra Narayan, Shri. Dhruva Narayan and Shri. Basav Narayan Kundu who are trying to salvage the old glories and hence this concept of resort/ guest house.

  • Most probably this is the palace of the Kundu family - Mr Bejay Narayan Kundu, his son Mr Joy Narayan Kundu and his grandson Mr Deb Narayan Kundu.
