'''Nandy Bagan''' or '''Nandi Bagan''' is a neighbourhood of [[South Kolkata]] in the [[India]]n city of [[Kolkata]] in [[West Bengal]]. It is a residential area surrounded with [[Kasba (Kolkata)|Kasba]], [[Haltu]], [[Garfa]], [[Jadavpur]], Babu Bagan, [[Dhakuria]], Naskarpara, Shahid Nagar, Bosepukur and Selimpur. It is traditionally an upper middle class neighbourhood, situated around the Nandi Bagan community playground.

==History==
Nandi Bagan was a part of the early settlements of [[Hindu]] immigrants from [[East Bengal]] who were displaced from their homeland during the [[Bangladesh Liberation War]] in 1971. The area saw rapid development after the construction of a new rail over bridge ('''[[Bijon Setu]]''') in 1978 connecting the area to [[Ballygunge]]. With the [[Economic liberalisation in India|economic boom]] in India in 1991, the area started to attract much investment from property developers.{{fact|date=March 2018}}
