Forested Detention Camp in Buxa

edit

Subhamay Dutta’s research further establishes that Subhas Chandra Bose was not detained at Buxa Fort. He reconceptualizes Buxa not merely as a ‘fort,’ but as a detention camp and an instrument of colonial control. His study shows that Buxa functioned as a detention camp under the Bengal Criminal Law Amendment Act of 1930 during 1930–1937, and later operated as a special jail from 1942 to 1947, and again from 1949 to 1951. ~2026-24713-64 (talk) 20:41, 22 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
