Because he assisted the great freedom fighters of 1971, the occupying forces shot him dead. From 1947 to 1971 he was president and chairman of the Jagati Union Board. After 1971 the Jagati union was broken up and divided into two unions, Jagati and Alampur.
Abul Hossain Mridha's family lineage:
The Alampur union, the Uzan village union and the surrounding areas rose up from the lap of the river. The Hisna river was once a swift-flowing one. This river emerges from the Padma at the Mohishkundi area of Daulatpur thana, mingles with the Chapaigachhi beel, flows past it and goes out; one of its branches flows out west of the Uzan village haat.
In earlier times it was a vast river, stretching far and wide. Within Swastipur, along the C and B Road on its west side, nearly a thousand years ago there was a swift-flowing river whose course can still be seen beside the road to the west. The present Baliapara was a char of that river. Being full of sand, no cultivation took place there. Kans grass woods sheltered pigs, bears and tigers. It is heard from people's mouths that about 400 years ago three young men came by river from western lands to the present Baliapara by boat. They were Rongaji and one Ghosh; after embracing Islam the latter later became Baghu Dewan. He was called Baghu Dewan because he roamed the tiger's-backed char, and his mazar stands in that region.
Because he devoted himself to religious work, he took the surname Khondokar. There was a beel in that area, one of whose branches went towards the Alamdanga beel area; hence that area came to be called Ghosh Bila. The ancestor of the Khondokar family of Ghosh Bila is this saintly aulia.
Rongaji and Bongaji were very hardworking men of robust build and daring nature. They cleared the forests and began cultivation. Enraged that a bear had seized Bongaji to eat him, Rongaji single-handedly beat a bear to death with a stick. The news — 'a young man of the Bali area has killed a bear with a stick' — reached the Nawab of Murshidabad. Because Rongaji of the Bali area had killed a bear, that area came to be named Baliapara. At the time the Nawab had a chowki (outpost) at Bhadalia. As a reward the Nawab gave Bongaji the title 'Khan' and employed him at that chowki. Later the Nawab granted two thousand five hundred bighas of tax-free (niskar) land. Rongaji's son Dulu Khan was very intelligent.
People were brought from different areas and settled in all those regions. Among them he gave land settlements and became a jotdar (landholder) and received the title Mridha. From then on no one in that family ever took a job; no rent had to be paid on the tax-free land. At Baliapara Dulu Khan had a huge thatched kachari house of sixteen chala (roof sections). To save themselves from tigers, a moat was dug on all four sides of their house, traces of which can still be seen.
Their descendant Amir Ali Mridha dug a huge pond west of the present C and B Road at Alampur to remove the shortage of drinking water.
