''Note: National, provincial and district boundaries have changed considerably since 1908. Typically, old states, ‘divisions’ and districts have been broken into smaller units, and many tahsils upgraded to districts. Some units have since been renamed. Therefore, this article is being posted mainly for its historical value. ''

=Harsud=
North-eastern Tahsil oi Nimar District, Central Provinces,
lying between 21° 38" and 22° 25'' N. and 76° 25' and 77° 13' E., with
an area of 1,089 square miles. The population of the area now form-
ing the l(7lisil worn 54,998 in 1901, and 44,155 in 1891. The density is
51 persons per square mile, and there are 291 inhabited villages. The
head-quarters, Harsud, is a village of only 1,098 inhabitants, ^^ miles
from Khandwa on the railway line towards Itarsi. Excluding 543 square
miles of Government forest, 68 per cent, of the available area is occupied for cultivation. The cultiviited area in 1903-4 was 276 square miles.
The demand for land revenue in the same year was Rs. 1,23,000, and
for cesses Rs. 12,000. The taJis'il was formed in 1896 by the transfer
of the Charwa tract from Hoshangabad District and of some villages
from the Khandwa tahsil, with the object of settling this large area of
cultivable waste land on the ryotwdri system. About 160 ryotwdri
villages have been established in the ta/isll, which was enlarged in 1904
by the transfer of another tract from Hoshangabad. The land gener-
ally is broken and uneven, and covered over considerable areas with
forest.
