The Nidaria Masjid, a 300-year-old Muslim architectural artifact, is located in the Borobari of Panchgram Union under Lalmonirhat Sadar Upazila. 

Built with bricks, surki, and lime, the influence of Mughal architecture is particularly noteworthy. The length of the Nidaria Mosque is 42 feet, and the width is 16 feet

There are three domes in a row on the top of the mosque and four buruzs designed in four corners. The combination of 3 doors and 12 minarets, big and small, has enhanced the adornment of the main structure of the mosque. 

And in front of the mosque is a two-story room and a huge Eidgah ground. Eid prayers and various Islamic ceremonies were organized on this ground. 

According to an inscription written in Persian on the Nidaria Mosque, the mosque was built in 1176 under the supervision of Mughal Subedar Masood Khan and his son Mansoor Khan

Subedar Mansoor Khan later donated another 10.56 acres of land for the mosque. Legend has it that Subeda’s Mansoor Khan did not have a beard on his face and prayed that he would build a mosque with a beard on his face. 

He later built the mosque as a promise when he shaved Subedar’s face. The mosque has been named Nidaria in Persian because of its beardlessness.

Archaeologists believe that the obstructed tomb next to the mosque belongs to the mosque’s founder Mughal Subedar Mansoor Khan. Due to the evolution of time and lack of proper conservation, the beauty of this Mughal architecture, one of the city’s most beautiful artifacts, has been destroyed to a great extent. 

Archaeological Directorate in the south of the country takes care of the second oldest mosque in the country. Muslims regularly pray at the Nidaria mosqueOpens in a new tab.

About 400 years ago, zamindar Muraridev Ghoshal Bhattacharya established the Tushbandhar Zamindar House at Kaliganj in Lalmonirhat district. 

In 1634, during the reign of Maharaja Pran Narayan, Muraridev Ghoshal Bhattacharya came to Koch Bihar from 24 Parganas district with a religious subject called Rasik Roy Vigraha

At that time, the land was donated for religious purposes. Maharaja Pran Narayan Ghoshal donated 9 Mouzas to Bhattacharya to worship Vigraha. 

But Ghoshal Bhattacharya was a Brahmin, so he objected to the maharaja’s donation, and he offered the king to take the treasury on the property. 

Rice was taken as a treasure by the king, however. Thus, the entire area of the estate was collected from paddy husk and given to the king of Bihar. It was kept at the eastern end of the zamindar house. 

From this incident, this zamindar house came to be known as the Tushbhandar zamindar house.

Kaliganj Upazila has been named after Kali Prasad Roy Chowdhury, another zamindar of this zamindar dynasty. 

Nearly four hundred years after its inception, the death of zamindar Girindra Mohan Roy Chowdhury in 1935 ended the historical reign of the Tushbhandar zamindar house.
