    History

    Historically, the Dooars region, including Murti, was a part of the ancient Kamata Kingdom and later came under the influence of various rulers. The area was primarily inhabited by tribal communities. The British colonial era saw the development of tea gardens in the region, leading to an increase in population and infrastructure. Post-independence, Murti gradually emerged as a popular tourist spot due to its natural beauty and proximity to wildlife reserves. The development of tourism infrastructure has been relatively recent, with efforts focused on sustainable and eco-friendly practices to preserve the region's delicate ecosystem. Today, Murti stands as a testament to the harmonious coexistence of nature and tourism.
