''' 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. '''
=Sandila Tahsil=
South-eastern tahsil of Hardoi District, United
Provinces, comprising the parganas of Sandila, Kalyanmal, Gundwa,
and Balamau, and lying between 26 53' and 27 21' N. and 80 16'
and 80 49' E., with an area of 558 square miles. Population fell from
2 77>359 i n I ^9 I to 266,195 ^ n I 9 OI > ^ e rate f decrease being the
highest in the District. There are 415 villages and only one town,
SANDILA (population, 16,843), the tahsil head-quarters. The demand
for land revenue in 1903-4 was Rs. 4,28,000, and for cesses Rs. 68,000.

The density of population, 477 persons per square mile, is slightly above
the District average. The tahsil lies between the Gumti on the north-
east and the Sai on the south-west. Near the rivers inferior sandy
tracts are found, the banks of the Gumti being especially poor. In
1903-4 the area under cultivation was 338 square miles, of which 116
were irrigated. Wells and tanks are almost equally important as a
source of supply, and the liability of the latter to fail in dry seasons
renders the tract very insecure.
