==History==
Many ''[[janapadas]]'' grew up along the old [[Hooghly River|Bhagirathi]] channel from the ancient times till around the 16th century: [[Kalighat]], Boral, [[Rajpur Sonarpur|Rajpur]], Harinavi, Mahinagar, [[Baruipur]], [[Baharu]], [[Jaynagar]], [[Majilpur]], [[Chhatrabhog]] etc. [[Bipradas Pipilai]]'s ''Manasavijaya'', composed in 1495, mentions many places in this region. “[[Chand Sadagar]], a merchant character of the ''Manasavijaya'', reached Baruipur, from Kalighat, through the old Bhagirathi channel. From there he proceeded towards Chhatrabhog, and then traveling through Hatiagarh pargana reached the open sea.” [[Chaitanya Mahaprabhu|Chaitanyadeva]] (1486-1534) also went through this route. Travelling by boat to [[Puri]] he halted at the village of Atisara, near Baruipur. "His last stoppage in [[24 Parganas]] was at Chhatrabhog, now a village within the jurisdiction of the [[Mathurapur, South 24 Parganas|Mathurapur]] police station. Chhatrabhog seems to have been an important river-port on the old Bhagirathi channel." Rama Chandra Khan, the ''[[zamindar]]'' of Chhatrabhog, helped Chaitanyadeva to continue with his journey.<ref>{{cite web | url = http://wbplan.gov.in/HumanDev/DHDR/24%20pgsSouth/s24prg_main.htm | title = District Human Development Report: South 24 Parganas |work= Pages 3-4, Chapter I: South 24 Parganas: An overview| publisher = Department of Planning and Statistics, Government of West Bengal |access-date = 15 December 2019|archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20161005044029/http://wbplan.gov.in/HumanDev/DHDR/24%20pgsSouth/s24prg_main.htm | archive-date = 5 October 2016 | url-status = dead }}</ref>
