&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Debagram&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is a village in the [[Kaliganj (community development block)|Kaliganj]] [[Community development blocks in India|CD block]] in the [[Krishnanagar Sadar subdivision]] of the [[Nadia district]] in the Indian state of [[West Bengal]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Before eighteenth century (A.D.) Debagram was surrounded by jungle. This place was inhabited by few people of [[Bagdi caste]] (Barga Kshatriya). In first part of eighteenth century a [[Brahmin]] family (surname- Majumder) migrated to Debagram from [[Uttar Pradesh]]. Few years later Gopal Bandopadhyay of [[Ichapore]] married a girl of Majumder family and started to live at Debagram. Gopal Bandopadhyay and his successor Janakinath Bandopadhyay were close of [[Nawabs of Murshidabad]]. After that quickly they extended their [[Zamindari]] and wealth. At the same time many other people, mainly Brahmins, from different areas came here and a prosperous village was formed. It is believed that some Brahmins studied [[Vedas]] there. Hence the village was named ‘Bedgram&amp;#039;. Many years later gradually this name became ‘Debagram’. Famous scholar and writer Biswanath Ponchanan lived here.Until British invasion this was an important place for Hindu ritualistic script writers.&lt;br /&gt;

===Location===&lt;br /&gt;
Latitude: 23°41&amp;#039; north,  Longitude: 88°18&amp;#039; east&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Debagram is a part of deltaic alluvial plain of west Bengal formed by river Ganga and its tributaries and distributaries.  It has an average elevation of 18 meters. This flat area is characterized by some ponds and low lands. The nearest river of the village is [[Bhagirathi]]. It is about 9&amp;amp;nbsp;km away from the village centre. Debagram is situated in the north west of Nadia District. [[Bethuadahari]] (12&amp;amp;nbsp;km away), [[Plassey]] (12&amp;amp;nbsp;km), [[Katwa]] (18&amp;amp;nbsp;km) and [[Tehatta]] (24&amp;amp;nbsp;km) is located respectively to the South, North, East and West of Debagram.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Area overview===&lt;br /&gt;
Nadia district is mostly alluvial plains lying to the east of [[Hooghly River]], locally known as Bhagirathi. The alluvial plains are cut across by such distributaries as Jalangi, Churni and Ichhamati. With these rivers getting silted up, floods are a recurring feature.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Gangopadhyay, Basudev, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Paschimbanga Parichay&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, 2001, {{in lang|bn}}, p. 70, Sishu Sahitya Sansad&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The Krishnanagar Sadar subdivision, presented in the map alongside, has the [[Hooghly River|Bhagirathi]] on the west, with [[Purba Bardhaman district]] lying across the river. The long stretch along the Bhagirathi has many swamps. The area between the Bhagirathi and the [[Jalangi River|Jalangi]], which flows through the middle of the subdivision, is known as Kalantar, a low-lying tract of black clay soil. A big part of the subdivision forms the Krishnanagar-Santipur Plain, which occupies the central part of the district. The Jalangi, after flowing through the middle of the subdivision, turns right and joins the Bhagirathi. On the south-east, the [[Churni River|Churni]] separates the Krishnanagar-Santipur Plain from the Ranaghat-Chakdaha Plain. The east forms the boundary with [[Bangladesh]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web | url =  http://www.censusindia.gov.in/2011census/DCHB/DCHB_A/19/1910_PART_A_DCHB_NADIA.pdf | title = District Census Handbook, Nadia, 2011, Series 20, Part XII A | work = Pages 13,14  | publisher =  Directorate of Census Operations, West Bengal. | access-date = 15 October 2020 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The subdivision is moderately urbanized. 20.795% of the population lives in urban areas and 79.205% lives in rural areas.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web  | url = http://www.wbpspm.gov.in/publications/District%20Statistical%20Handbook   | title = District Statistical Handbook 2014 Nadia  | work = Table 2.2, 2.4(a)  | publisher = Department of Planning and Statistics, Government of West Bengal  | access-date = 15 October 2020}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
