History of Alinagar block

Earlier Alnagar was under Benipur block, since administrative block was far from public reach and due to limited availability of transportation for the people of the village in Alinagar, it was difficult for the public to access the administrative block easily. Then there was a formation of Alinagar block which is under Benipur division. Then have crafted new panchayat and dissolved some of the old panchayat and village under new block.

New panchayat and village are - Alinagar, Tardih, Motipur Panchayat "Earlier Antour Panchayat (Antour, Motipur, Andauli)  and Ghanshyampur

While forming Alinagar block, they have dissolved Antour panchayat which was having [Antour], Motipur, Balha and Nandapati village in it. Now Antour is part of Motipur panchayat which is new and came into force after dissolving Antour panchayat. Balha and Nandapati is part of Benipur division. 

After formation of new block Alinagar, it becomes difficult for people in the village Antour to access the Administrative block in Alinagar since it is in the neighbourhood of Benipur division.
