TONKONATH JAMIDAR BARI

Tonkanath Jamidar Bari is located at Malduar beside the river Kulik which is the east of Ranishonkoil upzilla. The name of Tonkanath’s father is Buddinath Chowdhury. He was a Moithily Brahman and was the incharge of Shamrai temple inherited by Guala Jamidar. Guala Jamidar had no child. Whenever he left for Kashi he made a deed mentioning that if he never come back Buddinath will be the next Jamidar. Later Guala Jamidar didn’t came back and Buddinath became the next Jamidar.

Though Buddinath Chowdhury started building the Jamidar palace but Tankanath finished it. It was built at the end of the 19^th Century. Most of the part of the palace has already been cracked. The main door of the palace is at western end. There is a rest house in the north-east side of the palace and two pond in the east. There was Ramchandra mandir beside the river Kulik which was about 200 meter away the palace. The temple was too older than the palace. In 1971 during the liberation war of Bangladesh the Pakistani army made a huge lose of it.
