 Upload a photo
Banglatand’ is a ‘Muhalla’ at Chakradharpur municipality; This Muhallah was bifurcated and made Ward No 12, 13 & 14. The name Banglatand was derived from its geographical location. The area grew in an open area [tand] behind daak bungalow [Bangla].

This is one of the interesting place of the city. It is a mix population Muhallah where Muslim are in majority with few affluent Hindu ,christian family speaking Hindi,Urdu,Telgu,Bengali,Oria and Ho languages. Most of the inhabitants are involved in local business. They used to sell goods in neighboring weekly market. Before a handful of them were involved in agriculture. But, due to rapid expansion, most of the agriculture lands were acquired for construction of houses, so they also change their occupation. The standard of living can be determined from fact that there is one Government Primary School. Most of the families prefer sending their son to help male guardian in business instead of school.

The inhabitants of this muhalla lack access to basic amenities. Absence of concrete road, drinking water ,medical and recreational facilities ,and also improper drainage system due to random development often become bone of contention among neighbors. In rainy season water accumulation everywhere makes their life a hell.

    In Indian Independence perspective, Chakradharpur had been the place for the freedom fighters like Raja Chakradhar, Jagabandhu Singh, Pundit Godabarish Mishra, Rahim Bux and Fakeer Chand supporting Gandhi ji for his non-Cooperation movement and Khilafat Movement by Maulana Mazharul Haque( Gandhi ji’s class fellow) against British in 1920.(Please take a look ) This is one of the Railway-Subdivision generating a vast profit in goods freight sectors. It is also known as CKP being the short-time home for former Indian President V V GIRI and having achieved the pride of providing hospitality and shelters to Gandhi Ji and first President of India Dr Rajendra Prasad. It is the divisional headquarters of South Eastern Railway with a huge historical touch of tribal area of Chotanagpur. It is also one of the safest city from earth-quake .It has a cosmopolitan culture and the people generally speak Hindi,Bengali,English(Indo-Angolian)Gujrati,Marwadi,Oriya,Punjabi,Urdu and Telgu etc. The name of Chakradharpur Station’s sign-board used to be written in three lanuages, Hindi,English and Urdu .Unfortunately, Urdu one, was displaced with Oriya.CKP is also used to be the exemplary peaceful city with a mix culture of all four major religions ; Chirstian,Hindu,Muslim and Sikh. It is nearer to three major industrial cities like Jamshedpur, Ranchi and Rourkela; and touching closely the boundaries of two neibhouring states like Orissa and West Bengal. This city is my birthplace as well as one of my inspiring and exciting place to get strength. It is enriched with huge amount of natural resources like rivers, mountain valleys, jungle etc, enchanting greenery and providing peace of mind. CKP has been maintaining the uniqueness in providing educations in Hindi, Bengali, English, Oriya and Urdu for long time. I believe, it was the role of Railway administration to maintain the dignity of secularism in terms of education. That is the basic reason that the students educated from here are part and parcel of major professional institution worldwide. Chakradharpur is the name after the Raja (king)Chakradhar. Although I have left my birthplace long ago but I still love to be there, to spend with my friends over there which I know is dream of mine. I recall the days of my school yes S.E. Railway English Medium School (1992 I C S E Batch), the days are no more but Chakradharpur remains same in my memories as best place I have ever seen. By the way my address there was P-31/2, R.E. Colony, and Chakradharpur. Chakradharpur (CKP) Place of change and political mystery but all the peoples are lovely and nice. Historical place where you can see our past culture as well as present livelihood. Place Surrounded with mountains and the Place of the joining centre of two rivers Sanjay and Vijay. Place of Hopes and opportunities. Place serves the mineral rich areas and forest. It’s a green and cool Place. Lovely atmosphere and the Best Place to live in
