Jaynagar II
Jaynagar II is a community development block that forms an administrative division in Baruipur subdivision of South 24 Parganas district in the Indian state of West Bengal.
The Jaynagar II CD block is located at 22°10′31″N 88°25′12″E / 22.1751965°N 88.4200762°E. It has an average elevation of 8 metres (26 ft).
The Jaynagar II CD block is bounded by the Jaynagar I CD block in the north, the Kultali CD block in the east and south, the Mathurapur II, Mathurapur I and Mandirbazar CD blocks 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 Jaynagar II CD block has an area of 186.25 km2 (71.91 sq mi). It has 1 panchayat samity, 10 gram panchayats, 122 gram sansads (village councils), 49 mouzas and 49 inhabited villages, as per the District Statistical Handbook for the South Twenty-four Parganas district. Jaynagar and Kultali police stations serve this CD Block. Headquarters of this CD block is at Nimpith.
The Jaynagar II CD block has 42 km of embankments. Embankments raised along rivers are of critical importance for the safety of lives and protection of crops, against daily tides and tidal surges.
The Gram Panchayats of Jaynagar II CD block/panchayat samiti are: Baishata, Beledurganagar, Chuprijhara, Futigoda, Gardoani, Manirtat, Mayahauri, Mayda, Nalgora and Sahajadapur.
According to the 2011 Census of India, the Jaynagar II CD block had a total population of 252,164, of which 239,784 were rural and 12,380 were urban. There were 128,858 (51%) males and 123,306 (49%) females. There were 38,872 persons in the age range of 0 to 6 years. The Scheduled Castes numbered 85,587 (33.94%) and the Scheduled Tribes numbered 1,046 (0.41%).
