History[edit | edit source]

Lua error in Module:OSM_Location_map at line 1984: attempt to index field 'wikibase' (a nil value). Ekbalpur developed as a Muslim area, as it received a large number of people displaced with the development of the zoo at Zirat, Alipore, and King George (now Netaji Subhas) Docks in Garden Reach. One of the oldest Muslim burial grounds, the 'Solah Anna', is located on Ekbalpur Road. [1]

Ekbalpur was included in the Kolkata municipal area in 1888.[2]

In 1888, one of the 25 newly organized police section houses was located in Ekbalpur.[3]
