At the moment, the village is desolate. There are numerous marks of past human habitat but at present it looks abandoned. There is evidence that a village used to exist here and it is also in the map of Kotchandpur upazila in Jhenidah.

Sources and locals speak of a village named Mongolpur bearing the jurisdiction list number 66. There are marks even today of people that used to live here. There are three ponds and an Eidgah. According to Dalil Biswas, 82 of Dadpur village, Mongolpur used to be home to 120-150 families. One pond is called Gorer pukur, 10 bigha 22 decimal in size, another is called Tagore pukur, 5 bigha is size and the third and smallest one is 3 bighas and does not bear a name. There are numerous marks of huts where people used to live. Besides, a Eidgah had been built in place of a mosque where the Muslims perform namaj, said Samsul master, 85 of Dadpur village.

Abdul Mazed Master, 80, of Dadpur village said that his grandfather told him stories of what the village was like in the eighteenth century. During the British period, the people of Mughal dynasty lived at the village for which it was named Mongolpur. They were very religious and aristocratic. They allowed some lower caste families to live nearby for everyday chores, about 300 meter away from the aristocratic society. At the time after the fall of the Mughal dynasty they left the village fearing torture and abuse.

Another elderly man, Satyajit Tagore, 95, family member of late Nete Tagore said that Cholera broke out at around 50 years back and a huge number of people died of this fatal disease. Since then, people are afraid of living in this village because they think it is a cursed village. Elangi union land officer Jahid Hossain under Kotchandpur upazila said that this Mongolpur village has 260.50 acres land, Khatian No-206.

Eyewitness Milon Hossain, 50 of Dadapur village said, a man Nete Tagore lived by the side of Gorer pukur. He was unmarried. He was slaughtered to death in 1985 by some miscreants. He was the last villager of Mongolpur. The previous inhabitants left the village before his birth, he added. 

Md. Abdul Kuddus Khan in charge of the mosque of Mongolpur village said, he has unearthed a lot of skeletons in 1992 which were 8.50 feet length. He has heard from his forefathers that all the families have left their living place a long time ago. Election officer of Kotchandpur upazila said, there is a village named Mongolpur in the list but there are no voters.

Kotchandpur upazila UNO Debo Prashad Paul said, he has heard that there is a village named Mongolpur. Local union land office bears valid papers of the village and its JL No- is 66 in the map of the union. If any archeological department takes steps in looking into solving the mystery, we may find out if the people of Mongolpur were indeed 8.5 feet tall giants, and maybe we will find out truths about the village stranger than fiction.
