The Dhaka Times Desk There may be many places to travel. But it remains to be seen which one will be better for you considering various aspects. For example, you can visit Laldighi in Chittagong if you want. It is a historical lake.
Laldighi is one of the traditional places of Chittagong city. Located at the end of Jail Road under Ward No. 32 of Chittagong City Corporation, Andarkilla, Zilla Parishad Building and some local bank branches are located around Laldighi.
After the administration of Chittagong was handed over to the East India Company in 1761, the land tehsil office (now the Metropolitan Police Office) was painted red. At that time it came to be known as “Lalkuthi”. Later, the Jail Khana on the eastern side of Lalkuthi was also painted red and came to be known as “Lalghar”. Due to the same incident, the lake next to Lalghar and Lalkuthi came to be known as Laldighi.
The entire empty space at the foot of the hill of the Metropolitan Police headquarters was once known as the Municipal Maidan. By the end of the 19th century, due to road construction, the Municipal Maidan was divided into two parts, one side being the common people's playground and the other side the Muslim High School playground. This ground is now known as the historical Laldighir field. Rai Bahadur Rajkamal Ghosh, the then zamindar of Chikdair village of Raujan upazila, was Laldighi's guardian. He gave ownership of Laldighi to Chittagong City Corporation.
In 1910, Abdul Jabbar first organized Balikhela at Laldighi on 12th of Baisakh month. From then on every year on the 12th day of Baisakh, Jabbar Balikhela is held at the same place. At present there is a mosque and a park on the west bank of Laldighi.
