Village
is the smallest territorial, administrative and social unit in Bangladesh,
standing in contrast with a mahalla
or ward of a town. The term is here interchangeable with
that of mouza,
the lowest revenue collection unit for the government. A mouza contains the
whole land for land tax, while a village denotes settlement sites and human settlement
of a mouza. In this sense, a particular mouza could contain more
than one village. In the great cycles of empires in South Asia two institutions
are noticed existing throughout its history until recent
times, emperor on the top and village at the bottom. All the imperial dynasties preceding the
colonial one are seen to have established a
direct alliance with the villages which
supplied imperial revenue. Obviously, a village was viewed by
rulers as a crucial institution for the financial safety of the empire.
Durgasagar with an area of about
2,500 hectare, is the largest pond or dighi of southern Bangladesh. It is
located at Madhabpasa village of babuganj upazila, about 11 km away from
barisal town. Locally it is known as Madhabpasha Dighi. According to a desire
of Rani Durgavati, mother of Raja Joynarayan, the dighi was dug in 1780 (1187
BS). Initially there were four pucca ghats each having 15m width. Due to the
lack of proper maintenance jungles gradually surrounded the dighi. However in
1975, government renovated it to some extent. There are coconut trees around
the dighi which together with the dighi are bounded by brick-walls. There are
two gates each on the eastern and western sides of Durgasagar. In the middle of
the dighi, there is an island with bushes. migratory birds usually come here
during winter. The surrounding areas of the dighi has now been turned into a
picnic spot. Presently, Barisal Development Board is looking after it.

Under Mughal rule, the city was known as Jahangir Nagar (after Emperor Jahangir).[6] It was the capital of Mughal
Bengal and a center of the worldwide muslin trade. The modern city, however, was developed
chiefly under British rule in
the 19th century, and became the second-largest city in Bengal, after Calcutta (presently Kolkata). After the Partition of
Bengal in 1905, Dhaka became the capital of the new province of Eastern Bengal
and Assam but lost its status as a provincial capital again after
the partition was annulled in 1911. After the partition of
British India in 1947, Dhaka became the administrative capital of East Pakistan, and later, in 1971, the
capital of an independent Bangladesh. During the intervening period, the city
witnessed widespread turmoil; this included many impositions of martial law, the declaration of
Bangladesh's independence, military
suppression, devastation during war, and natural calamities.
