Keshiari community development block, Administrative block in Kharagpur subdivision, India
Keshiari community development block is an administrative unit in Kharagpur subdivision in West Bengal. The area is relatively flat and primarily characterized by agricultural activities.
The area underwent significant changes in land distribution and agrarian reforms beginning in the 1970s. These measures permanently shaped the agricultural structure of the region.
The block is home to several ethnic and religious communities, including Hindu, Christian, and Muslim residents. Bengali and Santali are the main languages spoken in daily life.
The area is connected to surrounding regions through two ferry services and multiple bus routes. Nearby railway stations offer additional options for travel and regional movement.
