Option 2 : Harichand Guruchand Thakur

The correct answer is ​Harichand Guruchand Thakur.

  • Despite staying for so long in India, most from Matua did not receive any rehabilitation packages and are part of the 1,700 colonies of refugees.
  • Matuas are a subaltern caste and followers of Harichand Guruchand Thakur, a social reformer of Bangladesh.
  • Many Matuas in the Bagjola camp area of Nadia district have come after March 25, 1971- the cut-off date fixed according to the Indira-Mujib accord in 1972.
  • Harichand Thakur was born in 1812 in Orakandi in Bangladesh in a peasant farmer family of the Thakur community (SC community).
    • Thakur, whose family were Vaishnavite Hindus, founded a sect of Vaishnavite Hinduism called Matua. This was adopted by members of the Namasudra community, who were then also known by the common pejorative name of Chandalas and considered untouchable.
