Tourist Attraction
Marichjhanpi
Marichjhanpi is a small, uninhabited island located in the Sundarbans, South 24 Parganas district of West Bengal. It is known for its tragic history, particularly the Marichjhapi Massacre of 1979, when thousands of post-partition refugees were forcibly evicted from the island by the West Bengal government, resulting in numerous deaths.
The island is now a ghost island, with the nearest inhabited place being Kumirmari, which is about 20-25 minutes away by motorized ferry.
