On three occasions Dr. Lohia came to Jalpaiguri. In the year 1946, August, for the first time, Dr. Lohia came to Jalpaiguri as a part of his organizational tour.

Veteran Socialist Leader and ex Head Master of Belacoba High School Ajay Basu (since deceased) told that in the year 1950 Dr. Lohia also came to Jalpaiguri town. Sri Bose stated the event as follows:
” In one evening, Badal Sarkar, Nirmal Sarkar, and, Haripada Ghosh were sitting in the office of the Socialist Party at BARDGAN PRANGAN. At that time one gentleman in a traditional Marwari dress entered in to our party office and called Nirmalda. They separately talked for a while and then together they left the place. On the following day, we went to Nirmalda’s house and learned that the gentleman with a traditional Marwari dress was Dr. Lohia. At that time Nepali Congress launched an armed struggle against RANASHAHI of Nepal. Dr. Lohia and some other socialist leaders extended active support to that movement. Coming to Jalpaiguri Dr. Lohia gave responsibility to Nirmal Sarkar to contact Socialist leader Basanta Ghosh of Siliguri. As instructed by Dr. Lohia Basant Ghosh was actively involved in the struggle against RANASHAHI and under his leadership, JHAPA province of Nepal was free from RANASHAHI Basanta Ghosh was appointed as Governor of JHAPA and held the post for quite some time.”
