gives trouble
Panchkula (West Bengal)
Bus service is available from the village to the city Bardhaman, however the condition of road is pathetic. As the road is made up of red soil it has to be repaired after every year.
The other facilities such as drinking water, electricity and telephonic facilities are also there but as the infrastructure is not that good and gives trouble to the villagers. There are no water taps and the electricity also creates a huge problem for the villagers as their agricultural irrigation is totally depended on the big pumps called Sub-Marshals. The governmental channels which are meant to supply water to the farmers are useless and do not serve the purpose of poor farmers.
The village's Primary School has seen some development such as more emphasis is being given to the studies and more students from the lower section of society are joining the school and the school has also been taken under the Sarwa Siksha Abhiyaan scheme.
Festivals of Panchkula
Every year there are two major festival which are organized in Panchkula. The oldest festival of the village is Gajan which happens during the month of May-June in the Dharmatala- Chandrai Dharmaraj temple. During this festival season people from different villages come to Panchkula and the local people's homes get filled with their relatives and friends from outside. The devotion of Lord Dharmaraj in the village is almost 500 years old.
The other festival of Panchkula is Hara-Gouri Puja during the month of October and it starts on the day next to Vijay Dashami or Ekadashi.
