Nabadwip Tant kapor Hat

Tant Kapoor Hat began as a weaving market connected to Nabadwip’s 15th-century textile activity.

Shantipur’s Tant saree tradition influenced the market’s origin.

Mughal-period support boosted muslin and jamdani weaving in the region.

The market expanded naturally as more weavers and traders gathered over time.

Overcrowding on market days created safety issues for sellers and buyers.

Absence of fixed stalls and management caused space and control problems.

Nabadwip Municipality is constructing the multi-story Tanti Bazar complex.

The state’s Small and Cottage Industries Department is funding the project.

Niranjan Das highlighted crowd-related trading difficulties.

Babul Saha raised concerns about rising vendor numbers and safety.

Mayor Biman Krishna Saha is supervising the development of the new complex.
