The Bengalis'successors in the Sagardweep, Kalinga War and throughout India.
Sagardwip is known to many as Shakdwip Sagardwip is still famous for the ashram of Kapila Muni, the Moon-born philosopher of Samkhya Every year, people from all over India throng to the Gangasagar fair in Sagardwip Sagardwip then became a piece of India Due to natural reasons, the geography of Sagardwip has changed.
This Sagardwip or Shakdwip was once about seven hundred miles in length and about four hundred miles in width along the Bay of Bengal coast in the Ganges estuary This huge island was the size of a country At that time, there were seven islands in the world--Jambudwip, Plaksha Dweep, Shalmali Dweep, Kush Dweep, Kaunch Dweep, Shakdwip and Pushkar Dweep.
India was located in Jambudwip.

India was located in Jambudwip.
The Sakadvipa was the residence of sage Vyasadeva Later, the founder of the Gupta dynasty of India, Sri Gupta, was the resident of this island This island was connected to Gangaridi Another identity of Gangaridi was Kalinga Desha Kalinga Desha was divided into three parts, 1) Gangaradi Kalinga: from Brahmadesa to Subarnarekha River.
2) Madhya Kalinga: from Subarnarekha River to Chilika Lake in Orissa and 3) Main Kalinga: from Chilika Lake in Orissa to Godavari River in Andhra Pradesh The capital of this main Kalinga was Ganganagar, which extended from Pandua in Hooghly district to Gangpur in Burdwan district.

The people of this Kalinga country, divided into three parts, were Bengalis of lunar origin Another identity was that they were of one caste and one race, called Gangaradhi Kalinga caste, like Manipur, Sindh, Gujarat and Coorg, as they are today We find accounts of this glorious Kalinga nation and country in the writings of foreign travellers such as Megasthenes, Fa-Hien, Hiuen Tsang, It-Tsing, etc.
Not only this, but the Greek hero Alexander left his conquest unfinished on hearing of the valour of these Gangaridis and returned to his homeland from across the river Bipasha The population of this island was about 30 million Of these, the Gaudas or Vedic Brahmins were about a hundred thousand.
The island was destroyed by natural causes during the reign of the Gupta Emperor Chandragupta II Chandragupta II resettled its subjects in different parts of India under his control Later, as king, the Mauryan Emperor Ashoka conquered Kalinga at the cost of the blood of about a million people This is much-talked-about history.
We will discuss the reasons for Ashoka's invasion of Kalinga in another article Today, we will only discuss the resettlement of the people of Sakdweep However, after the natural disaster in Sakdweep, the citizens of the island were resettled to different parts of India by the Gupta Emperor Chandragupta II "Vikramaditya.
" Then, Emperor Ashoka resettled about a million Kalinga Bengalis who were captured in the Kalinga War.

" Then, Emperor Ashoka resettled about a million Kalinga Bengalis who were captured in the Kalinga War.
These resettled refugees became known as different castes by their association with the local inhabitants of the places they settled in India For example, "The present-day Raju (Raput), Reddy (Radi) and Gaudas of Andhra, Karan and Khandaitas of Orissa, Tamil Naidus of Madras, Rajputs or Nairs of Kerala and Malwa, Gaudas of Karnataka, Rajputs of Coorg and Maharashtra, Rajputs of Sindh and Gurjara, and Jats of Punjab were all Kalingas or Mahishyas of Shakdweep, Rarh or Gaur in Bangladesh.
Some were refugees from Rarh and Gaur as a result of Ashoka's Kalinga War, and some were refugees as a result of the destruction of Shakdweep " --History of Bengal and Bengal, Volume II: Dhananjaya Das, Majumdar p 140.

And millions of Gaur Brahmins who accompanied these refugees also spread all over India Later they established various reputed Sanskrit educational institutions in Kashmir, Kashi, Ujjain, Mithila, Kannauj, Jaipur, etc The present-day Brahmins of the order Dwivedi, Trivedi, Chaturvedi were once the inhabitants of Shakdweep Later due to circumstances they settled in different parts of India.
In a word, the ancient culture of Bengal is spread all over India So today's provincialism is not lost to history All this is rooted in the bone marrow of Bengal and Bengalis.

Thus, the fact that the Gangadharis in the sixth century BC were able to form a caste and a nation, developed in knowledge, science, wealth and social unity, is as remarkable as the rubbing of the face of so-called provincialism today.
