Just 2 km north of Bakkhali is the twin town Frazerganj, which is named after Andrew Fraser. Fraser, in the early 1900s, tried to build the area into a resort, which he couldn’t as the waves frequently washed the constructions. His office ruins can still be seen here. A Wind Energy Farm that generates 1 MW and is soon going to be extended to produce 2 MW is located in Frazerganj.
