About Calcutta History

A Brief History of Kolkata: The City of Joy

Kolkata, the capital of West Bengal, holds a prominent place in India’s history due to its strategic location and cultural significance. Calcutta Known as the “City of Joy,” it has been a witness to major political, social, and cultural transformations.

The Awakening (1690–1790)

Kolkata’s journey began in 1698 when the East India Company acquired the villages of Sutanuti, Kolikata, and Gobindapur from Sabarna Chowdhury. By 1699, the city was developed as a Presidency town. Fort William was constructed, signaling the British intent to establish dominance.
In 1757, after their victory over Siraj-ud-Daulah, the British established Kolkata as Bengal’s capital under Warren Hastings. The Asiatic Society, founded in 1784 by Sir William Jones, became a hub for Oriental studies.

The Flourish (1790–1890)

This era marked the Bengal Renaissance, blending Indian and British cultures. Landmarks like Raj Bhavan (1803), Town Hall (1813), and the Indian Museum (1814) emerged. Educational institutions like Presidency College (1817), Medical College (1835), and the University of Calcutta (1857) were established. The city also saw technological advancements, including the introduction of telegraphs (1851) and trams (1902). Eminent personalities like Rabindranath Tagore and Swami Vivekananda contributed to its cultural and spiritual legacy.

The Milestones (1890–2000)

Kolkata continued to evolve with the contributions of figures like Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose and Mother Teresa. Iconic structures like the Victoria Memorial (1921) and Howrah Bridge (1943) became symbols of the city.
Post-independence, Kolkata emerged as a cultural hub with institutions like the Academy of Fine Arts (1933) and Rabindra Sadan (1967). Infrastructure developments, including the Metro Rail (1984) and Vidyasagar Setu (1992), modernized the city. In 2001, the city’s name officially changed from Calcutta to Kolkata to reflect its Bengali pronunciation. Kolkata remains a vibrant blend of history, culture, and modernity, embodying its legacy as the City of Joy.
