Abstract

Labhpur is known for the Fullara Shakti peeth. But it has another attraction too. As it is the birth place of Tara Shankar Bandyopadhyaya, a famous literary person of post Sarat Chandra era in Bengal. His novel ‘Dhatri Devata’ published in 1939. Besides, his cutcherry is also known as the same. After 1997, the author’s ancestors donated it to the Panchayat Samiti with certain conditions. But ‘Tarashankar Shotobarshiki Committee failed to fulfill its purposes. Palash Bandyopadhyaya, the athor’s ancestor, converted it into legal issue. After a major political change in 2011, the new government showed a positive attitude towards the project. ‘Birbhum Sangskriti Bahini’ and its polar star Ujjwal Mukherjee played a spontaneous and active role in restoration and preservation of the cultural heritage. Now, ‘Dhatri Devota’ becomes one of the major attractions to the travelers.
