Abstract
The history of Tripura’s capital city of Nutan Agartala is interesting. While the former capital like Udaipur, Amarpur and Puratan Agartala had revolutionary background, Nutan Agartala has an evolutionary background. Sudden change of circumstances for the worst caused by foreign attacks forced the Tripuri dynasty to hastily shift the capitals to Udaipur, to Amarpur and to Puratan Agartala during the medieval period. No such radically abnormal situation forced Maharaja Krishna Kishor Manikya (1830-1849) to shift the capital from Puratan Agartala to Nutan Agartala in 1838. A low, marshy, riverine land took the efforts of several king and citizen to assume the character of Mahanagar. The efforts of Radhakishore Manikya (1896-1909) standout prominently for urban planning as well as drastic development. The major thrust of this paper is on the contributions of Maharaja Radhakishore Manikya. For this, certain methods have been followed.
