Description

Police Training School


Dalanda House Dalanda House takes its name from Dullundah, one of the fifty five villages acquired by the East India Company in 1758. In 1847 the biggest lunatic asylum for natives was established here after shifting the old one from Russapagla. The premises in 1906 passed to the Stamp & Stationery Department of the Government of Bengal. In 1914 after eight years of persuasion Sir Frederick Halliday, Commissioner of Police, Calcutta, succeeded in establishing the Police Training School here by discontinuing the practice of sending recruits to Bhagalpur for training. However during the first few years it became infamous when Charles Tegart used it as an interrogation centre for freedom fighters of Bengal.

Architecturally this heritage building follows the Panopticon style of Jeremy Bentham which was commonly used in prisons, hospitals and asylums where a circular structure with a surveillance house at its centre kept all inmates fearful of constant vigilance.
