History

When the Tebhaga movement broke out in 1946, the peasant movement affected several areas of what is now South 24 Parganas. Kakdwip and Namkhana were the storm centres of the movement.[3]

Geography

Kakdwip CD block is located at 21°52′34″N 88°11′07″E. It has an average elevation of 4 metres (13 ft).

Kakdwip CD block is bounded by Kulpi CD block in the north, Patharpratima CD block in the east, Namkhana and Sagar CD blocks in the south and Nandigram I CD block in Purba Medinipur district, across the Hooghly estuary in the west.[4][5]

South 24 Parganas district is divided into two distinct physiographic zones: the marine-riverine delta in the north and the marine delta zone in the south. As the sea receded southwards, in the sub-recent geological period, a large low-lying plain got exposed. Both tidal inflows and the rivers have been depositing sediments in this plain. The periodical collapse of both the natural levees and man-made embankments speed up the process of filling up of the depressions containing brackish water wetlands. The marine delta in the south is formed of interlacing tidal channels. As non-saline water for irrigation is scarce, agriculture is monsoon dominated. Some parts of the wetlands are still preserved for raising fish.[6]

Kakdwip CD block has an area of 252.74 km2. It has 1 panchayat samity, 11 gram panchayats, 177 gram sansads (village councils), 39 mouzas and 39 inhabited villages, as per the District Statistical Handbook, South Twenty-four Parganas. Kakdwip and Dholahat police stations serve this block.[7]Headquarters of this CD block is at Ganespur, PO Pukurberia - 743354.[8][9]

Kakdwip CD block has 203.35 km of embankments. Breaches in these embankments ranged between 3.4 and 3.6 km annually. Embankments raised along rivers are of critical importance for the safety of lives and protection of crops, against daily tides and tidal surges. Technologically the embankment structures are weak and there is need of proper drainage of accumulated rain water through sluice gates. Crude cuts in embankments for drainage of accumulated rain water and channels built for providing water to large fisheries (bheris) also add to the hazards. Cyclones and tropical depressions are regular threats.[10]

Gram panchayats of Kakdwip CD block/panchayat samiti are: Bapuji, Madhusudanpur, Netajee, Pratapdityanagar, Rabindra, Ramgopalpur, Rishi Bankim Chandra, Sri Ramkrishna, Srinagar, Surjanagar and Swami Vivekananda.[11]
