Started in 1922 and made a branch centre in 2002, it was the
dwelling place of Sri Balaram Basu, one of the chief lay disciples of
Sri Ramakrishna. The place has been sanctified by the numerous visits
of Sri Ramakrishna, his disciples, and Holy Mother Sri Sarada Devi.
It was here that the Ramakrishna Mission Association was born-
