Baghajatin is a locality of South Kolkata in West Bengal, India. It has been named in honour of Jatindranath Mukherjee whose nom de guerre was Bagha (Tiger) Jatin. It is located in the southern part of the city and is surrounded by Jadavpur and Santoshpur in the north, Chak Garia and Panchasayar in the east, Baishnabghata Patuli Township in the south and Bijoygarh and Regent Estate in the west. The locality is referred to as the middle-class and currently growing very well-off, upper-middle-class people's locality in South Kolkata. Though it is surrounded by its rich and famous areas, over the it still remains primarily a nice upper-middle-class neighbourhood. Apart from its critical location in south Calcutta, it is also a place inhabited by prominent people with strong social and cultural background. The two most important landmarks that signify this locality are Baghajatin railway station, Baghajatin bus terminal and EM Bypass which are the lifeline of this locality and its USP.
