History
Descendants of Parshuram Panchanan had lived in Jaduboyra.[5] Heramba Chandra Maitra was born here in 1857. At that time, it was a village of Pabna District under Kumarkhali subdivision. In 1871, it was incorporated into Nadia District. Purna Chandra Lahiri, born in 1872, was a resident of this village. A building known as "Lahiri Bari" still exists in the village. He contributed to the establishment of Jaduboyra High School in 1902.[6][7] The maternal home of the Indian revolutionary Khudiram Bose was also in Jaduboyra. According to popular belief, Khudiram Bose was arrested from this Lahiri residence.[8]
