About Municipality

Memari, the city of your pride, is now a small town beyond the village. It is heard that the name came from Mohammadpur, It is also said that mail from Satgechia village to Ajapur was carried by horse or donkey with a halt or rest for water in the middle. In Portuguese, the name of this Halt is ‘Marmor’, which has evolved into Memory later.  After the construction of the railway line and the construction of the railway station were completed, Memari came to be known as a complete village. Now the Howrah Burdwan main line has passed through the center of the city. The Irrigation Canal or Gangur River on the northern part of the railway line and the Navigation Canal on the southern part which is one of the drainage channels of the Memari region. These are maintained by Irrigation Department and DVC Department respectively. Memory town is located 26 km away from Burdwan city and 9 km to its south is the Durgapur Expressway which connects Memari town with the surrounding remote villages and towns.
