Nashipur Rajbari

Nashipur Rajbari of the Nashipur Raj Family is situated in Nashipur next to the old palace built by Raja Debi Singha. The current palace was built by Raja Kirti Chandra Singha Bahadur in 1865. It was the court of the Debi Singha, who is historically renowned for being the tax collector during the British Raj. He came from Panipat and started as a trader. After a trial, he succeeded in getting an appointment in the Revenue Department under Dewan Reza Khan. He was known for being strict against those who failed to pay taxes on time to him. Gradually, he was able to exert his influence among the people of the East India Company and became head of that department. Debi Singha was also the founder of the Nashipur Raj Family.[2][3]
