Kotulpur community development block, Administrative block in Bishnupur subdivision, India
Kotulpur is an administrative block located in Bishnupur subdivision in eastern Bankura district. The region is dominated by rice fields and agricultural infrastructure that shape daily life for the communities living here.
The area was historically governed by the Hindu Rajas of Bishnupur before later coming under British colonial administration. This transition shaped the administrative structures that continue to exist today.
The block contains 41,119 households spread across multiple panchayats, including Deshrakoalpara, Gopinathpur, Lowgram, and Madanmohanpur.
The block has a rural hospital and primary health centers offering medical care to the local population. The best time to visit is during dry months when agricultural work is less intensive.
The Amodor River originates from a natural spring at Knuchiakol and flows through the entire block. This waterway is vital for irrigation of the surrounding fields and supports the region's farming activities.
