Ducarel's Purnea Priya Ratnam

Ducarel had been the great hero for the common man of Purnea and this Purnea was an integral part of Ducarel's life. A living example of this is the village named 'Dhokaraila or Dokaraila'. This village is present in Jalalgarh block under Purnea district which is still keeping alive the legacy of Ducarel's personality. This is a living testimony of Ducarel's outstanding personality. No one stays idly in the hearts and minds of the people. Certainly, there must have been something special in him. Ducarel's tenure in Purnea was only two years. The aim is to limit the story to the periphery of Purnea. Ducarel was truly a representative 'hero' for the common folk of Purnea.
