Sagarpara
Sagarpara is a village and gram panchayat in the Jalangi CD block in the Domkol subdivision of Murshidabad district in West Bengal, India. It is 2.5 kilometres from the Padma River. History

Like many other small villages in Ganges Delta, Ramakantapur, Sagarpara was a small river port during the time of Mughal. Until the year of Indian independence in 1947, it was just a small village backed by a port to ferry jute through Jalangi River, a tributary of Padma River. The partition of India saw Sagarpara grow due to an influx of settlers from East Bengal. The Bangladesh Liberation War in 1971 saw another surge of refugees in this Village located only 2.5 kilometres from the Bangladesh-India border. Population and commerce in Sagarpara was growing fast after 1971 due to new settlers who preferred to build a house in this Village due to its high land surrounded by small rivers. The village does not get flooded because it is located on the high natural barrage side of the river. It survived like a water-locked island during devastating floods of 1978 and 1997, which forced its neighboring population to migrate into the village. Geography

Location
Sagarpara is located at . Area overview
While the Lalbag subdivision is spread across both the natural physiographic regions of the district, Rarh and Bagri, the Domkal subdivision occupies the north-eastern corner of Bagri. In the map alongside, the Ganges/ Padma River flows along the northern portion. The border with Bangladesh can be seen in the north and the east. Murshidabad district shares with Bangladesh a porous international border which is notoriously crime prone (partly shown in this map). The Ganges has a tendency to change course frequently, causing severe erosion, mostly along the southern bank. The historic city of Murshidabad, a centre of major tourist attraction, is located in this area. In 1717, when Murshid Quli Khan became Subahdar, he made Murshidabad the capital of Subah Bangla (then Bengal, Bihar and Odisha). The entire area is overwhelmingly rural with over 90% of the population living in the rural areas. Note: The map alongside presents some of the notable locations in the subdivisions.
