### Location

[edit]

Sattari is located at 24°59′37″N 88°02′24″E﻿ / ﻿24.9937°N 88.0400°E﻿ / 24.9937; 88.0400 the English Bazar tehsil (transl. administrative unit) or community development block of Maldah district in West Bengal, India. It is situated 14.4 kilometres (8.9 mi) from sub-district headquarter Malda and 15.1 kilometres (9.4 mi) from the district headquarters of the English Bazar.[citation needed] It is at the border of English Bazar and Mothabari on the Pagla River, a tributary of the Ganges.

### Area overview

[edit]

The area shown in the adjoining map is the physiographic sub-region known as the diara. It “is a relatively well drained flat land formed by the fluvial deposition of newer alluvium.” The most note-worthy feature is the Farakka Barrage across the Ganges.[4] The area is a part of the Malda Sadar subdivision, which is an overwhelmingly rural region, but the area shown in the map has pockets of urbanization with 17 census towns, concentrated mostly in the Kaliachak I CD block.[5][6] The bank of the Ganges between Bhutni and Panchanandapur (both the places are marked on the map), is the area worst hit by left bank erosion, a major problem in the Malda area.[7] The ruins of Gauda, capital of several empires, is located in this area.[8]

Note: The map alongside presents some of the notable locations in the area. All places marked in the map are linked in the larger full screen map.
