History :
The Nawab Murshid Quli Khan made Murshidabad the
capital city of Sube Bangla, comprising of Bengal, Bihar and Orissa. The
East India Company reigned from here for many years after the Battle of
Plassey;Travellers extolled its glory through ages. Like other areas of
Bengal Murshidabad also made its contribution to the freedom struggle
of India. The Murshidabad District Committee of the Indian National Congress
was formed in 1921. Brajabhushan Gupta was its first President. The students
participated in movements like the Boycott of Foreign Goods and had links
with the revolutionaries. In the Krishnanath College of Berhampore revolutionaries
like Surya Sen and Niranjan Sen spent their college days. Netaji Subhas
Chandra Bose and Kazi Nazrul Islam spent some of their prison days. Mahatma
Gandhi, Dr. Rajendraprasad, C. R. Das and Netaji had also visited the
district of Murshidabad during the freedom struggle days. A retarding
force was the Muslim League Movement. But, the Congress and other secular
forces fought against the communal forces. The efforts of Nawab Wasif
Ali Mirza in forming the Hindu Muslim Unity Association in 1937 were also
noteworthy. In 1943 a conference of the Association in Kolkata was arranged,
at the request of Fazlul Haque. In 1940, the Revolutionary Socialist
Party was formed by Tridib Choudhury in the district. The presence of
the Quit India movement was also felt here.The
country became independent on the 15th of August 1947, after being bifurcated
into two nations, viz., India and Pakistan.Murshidabad became part of
India on the basis of the final award of the Radcliffe Commission. However,
some confusion was there on the initial two days of Independence.
