The '''Sheoraphuli Raj Debuttar Estate''' was a part of the [[Zamindar|Zamindari]] of the Sheoraphuli Raj Parivar.<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
[[Sheoraphuli]] fell under the [[Zamindari]] of Raja Manohar Roy, a [[Raja]] in [[Bengal]] during the reign of [[Akbar|Akbar the Great]] of the [[Mughal era]]. Raja Raj Chandra Roy, also known as ''Jotey Raja'' (the king with dreadlocks), [[Zamindar]] of Sheoraphuli built the temple of Ram-Sita at Sripur ([[Serampore]]) in 1752. He resided in the ''Rajbari'' of Sheoraphuli built by him, which also served as his temporary residence apart from his abode in Patuli. His third son Raja Harischandra left Patuli for Sheoraphuli, which served as their permanent dwelling thereafter. After him the [[Zamindari]] was demarcated into the 'Barataraf' and the 'Chototaraf' which has been retained. <br />
<br />
Later on Zamindar Nirmal Chandra Ghosh (Barataraf) and his descendants of the ''Raj Parivar'' continue to reside in the ''Rajbari''. The ''Saraphuli Raj Debuttar'' has been traditionally renowned for the policy of self-effacement.<br />
== Culture ==<br />
The Sarvamangala Devi Temple of the Raj Debuttar Estate is a center of attraction in and around the area most notably during the occasion of [[Durga Puja]]. Devotees and ''bhakts'' from various places gather for the '[[Arati|''Arati'']]'. The ''Puja'' is also a special occasion for gatherings of family members of the Raj Parivar. The "[[\|Kumari Puja]]" during the 'Mahaashtami' is a special and prominent phase during the Rajbari [[Durga Puja]]. The temple is also an abode for the [Govindahari- Radhika]] ''murti'' and the family deities Shree Shree Lakshmi Janardan Thakur. <br />
<br />
The Rajbari Durga Puja reached its 280th year in 2012. The Asthadhaatu ''murti'' of Devi Sarvamangala is said to have been excavated from below ground, after a vision appeared before Raja Manohar Roy. The [[temple]] and the [[Durga Puja]] has a rich history and is looked after by the Raj Debuttar Trust. The trust was formed by the members of the Raj Parivar to ensure timely temple renovations and maintenance.<br />
