Happy republic day 2009 to all readers

The nation celebrates 60th Republic Day on 26th January 2009. We wish all the citizens of Nadia a very happy Republic day and invite the citizens to join the district level celebrations at Krishnagar stadium and Sub-divisional celebrations at respective SDO head quarters from 9.25 onwards. There will be national salute, march past by para military and civilian forces, schools, NCC etc followed by colourful cultural programmes. Tableau on different schemes will also be shown.

It is my proud privilege to get the opportunity to hoist the national flag on Republic Day at Krishnagar Stadium on three occasions.

The interesting fact is that in the history of Independant Nadia only four other District Magistrates, out of 45 DMs since 16.08.1947, had the privilege to hoist national flag as DM Nadia on three consecutive occasions. They are :

1. Smt. Ranu Ghosh 1977, 1978 and 1979.
2. Shri P. K. Prodhan 1987, 1988 and 1989.
3. Shri Hem Pande 1992, 1993 and 1994.
4. Shri R K Vats 1997, 1998 and 1999.

With warm regards and best wishes for developed Nadia.

Friendly Cricket Match between DM Eleven vs Press Eleven

It was really exciting and privilege to participate in a friendly match with Press personnel of Nadia district. There were several incidents/ happenings which are unique and memorable in the match today. It was just 12 overs match, where DM eleven won the toss and did fielding first. DM Nadia and captain of the DM Eleven team did fielding upto 3rd over to encourage the players. Press eleven led by Shri Susmit Haldar were out at 60 runs after 12 overs. DM eleven scored 63 runs in 11 overs and won the match. DSA Nadia made arrangements for the match, which was very successful event.

Wicket keeper of DM Eleven Shri Joy Tudu, DySP got his thumb finger displaced at the start of the match, later treated by a senior Orthopaedic. Player of Press club Shri Palash Debnath also got his shoulder bone displaced and treated by the same doctor little later. We wish their early recovery.

We appreciate the gesture of Press to give us the opportunity for such a wonderful get together.
