It had been within the limits of ancient ‘Gour’ and ‘Pandua’ (Poundrabardhana). These two cities had been the capital of Bengal in ancient and medieval ages and are equidistant, north and south from Englishbazar town (once known as Englishbazar established by the British Rulers). The boundary of Gour was changed at different phases, in different ages since 5th Century BC and its name can be found in Puranic text. ‘Pundranagar’ was the principle capital of Mourya Empire. Gour and Poundrabardhana formed parts of the Mourya Empire as is evinced from the inscriptions in Brahmilipton a seal discovered from the ruins of Mahasthangarh in the Bagura district of Bangladesh. Hiuen Tsang saw many Asokan stupas at Poundrabardhana. The inscription discovered in the district of undivided Dinajpur and other parts of North Bengal along with the Allahabad Pillar inscriptions of Samudragupta clearly indicate that the whole of North Bengal as far east as Kamrup formed a part of the Gupta Empire. After the Gupta`s in the beginning of 7th century AD Sasanka, the king of Gour ruled independently for more than three Decades. Karna- Subarna of Murshidabad was his capital. From the middle of 8th century to the end of 11th century, the Pal Dynasty ruled Bengal. Buddhism was their religion. It was during their reign, the Jagadalla Vihara (Monastery) in Bannid flourished paralleling with Nalanda, Vikramshila and Devicot.
