Diamond Harbour II
Diamond Harbour II is a community development block that forms an administrative division in Diamond Harbour subdivision of South 24 Parganas district in the Indian state of West Bengal.
Deulpota is an important archaeological site in this CD block.
The Diamond Harbour II CD block is located at 22°11′28″N 88°11′26″E / 22.1910091°N 88.1904741°E. It has an average elevation of 8 metres (26 ft).
The Diamond Harbour II CD block is bounded by the Falta CD block in the north, the Diamond Harbour I CD block in the east, the Sutahata CD block in the Purba Medinipur district, across the Hooghly, in the south, the Shyampur I CD block in the Howrah district, across the Hooghly, in the west.
The South 24 Parganas district is divided into two distinct physiographic zones: the marine-riverine delta in the north and the marine delta zone in the south. As the sea receded southwards, in the sub-recent geological period, a large low-lying plain got exposed. Both tidal inflows and the rivers have been depositing sediments in this plain. The periodical collapse of both the natural levees and man-made embankments speed up the process of filling up of the depressions containing brackish water wetlands. The marine delta in the south is formed of interlacing tidal channels. As non-saline water for irrigation is scarce, agriculture is monsoon dominated. Some parts of the wetlands are still preserved for raising fish.
The Diamond Harbour II CD block has an area of 95.59 km2. It has 1 panchayat samity, 8 gram panchayats, 136 gram sansads (village councils), 92 mouzas and 89 inhabited villages, as per the District Statistical Handbook, South Twenty-four Parganas. Patra village is located partly in Diamond Harbour I and partly in Diamond Harbour II CD Block. Diamond Harbour, Parulia Coastal and Ramnagar police stations serve this CD Block. Headquarters of this CD block is at Sarisha.
Gram panchayats of the Diamond Harbour II CD block/panchayat samiti are: Bhadura Haridas, Kalatalahat, Kamarpole, Khorda, Mathur, Nurpur, Patra and Sarisa.
According to the 2011 Census of India, the Diamond Harbour II CD block had a total population of 190,801, of which 185,808 were rural and 4,993 were urban. There were 97,686 (51%) males and 93,115 (49%) females. There were 23,395 persons in the age range of 0 to 6 years. The Scheduled Castes numbered 50,666 (26.55%) and the Scheduled Tribes numbered 79 (0.04%).
