The name itself comes from a fascinating legend. It is derived from "Sona Gazi," or "Sona Ghazi," a Sufi saint and notorious dacoit (bandit) named Sanaullah. According to local lore, after his death, his grieving mother heard a divine voice proclaiming her son had become a warrior-saint, or "Gazi". A mosque built in his honor eventually gave the area its name. In Bengali, 'Sona Gachi' also literally means 'Tree of Gold'. This name ironically contrasts with the poverty faced by many who work there, creating a rich metaphor for a place where value and vulnerability intersect. kolkata sonagachi xxx randi bhabi photos best
