History

The Sheoraphuli-Tarakeshwar line was constructed on debuttar property in 1885 and was inspected by Lord Dufferin and Raja Girindrachandra. [2]
Geography
Baidyabati Municipality covers an area of 12.03 km2 and has a population of 121,110 (2011). [3]
In 1981, 25.00% of the total population formed main workers and 75.00% were non-workers in Baidyabati Municipality and 27.00% of the total main workers were industrial workers.
