Durga pujo celebration of Patuatola Bandhyopadhyay family dates back to 1791 when Ram Hari
Bandhyopadhyay came from Nawgaon in Nadia district in 1785 and started residing at 54 Patuatola
Lane near College Street, Kolkata.
After a few years his brother Ram Nidhi Bandhyopadhyay came from Nawgaon and stayed with him.
Both the brothers were very dedicated and hardworking towards their work and could establish
themselves in no time. They planned to celebrate a ten days Durga pujo at their home.
Ram Nidhi’s son Tarachand Bandhyopadhyay (1812--- ) grew up in Kolkata in a locality where
education was flourishing. Schools, Colleges and Universities were coming up and started becoming
an educational hub of India.
A Coffee Table book was published on 125th year where the family members poured out
their heart with nostalgic articles from their childhood memories.
Both these books are available in PDF format here for anyone who wish to time travel into the past
and venture into the era gone by.
