"Kukra hati" is it market for Hen/cock ?
Once the principal town town of Doro pargana had a big market at Kukrahati. Even today the market exists in a different form. It's near the river, near the village and often sailors landed here for purchasing of hens/cocks & vegetables. Heard from the elder people that in early 1900 s, people used to go to the market with their bulls burdened with rices & returned home with vegetables, salts ,chicken etc.
