=Barnagar (Nolai)=

Town in the Ujjain district of Gwalior State, 
Central India, situated in 23° 4' N. and 75° 23’ E., on the west bank of 
the Chamla, a tributary of the Chambal river, and on the Khandwa- 
Ajmer branch of the Rajputana-Malwa Railway. Population (1901), 
10,856. The town grew rapidly between 1881 and 1891, owing to the 
opening of the railway, and in spite of the famine of 1 899-1 900 is still 
increasing. It belonged formerly to the Bahram Loth family of Raj- 
puts, who still hold a rent-free village in the neighbourhood ; but in the 
eighteenth century it fell to Sindhia. Barnagar is managed by a muni- 
cipality, constituted in 1901, which controls the lighting and sanitation, 
having an income of about Rs. 1,200 a year, chiefly derived from local 
taxes. A considerable trade in grain and opium has arisen since the 
opening of the railway. A State post office, a dispensary, a school, and 
a resthouse are situated in the town. Close to the railway station there 
is a British combined post and telegraph office.
