[edit] Naini Tal Tahsil, 1908
This article has been extracted from THE IMPERIAL GAZETTEER OF INDIA , 1908. OXFORD, AT THE CLARENDON PRESS. |
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.
A portion of NainI Tal District, United Pro- vinces, comprising the parganas of Dhyanirao, Chhakhata Pahar, Pahar Kota, Dhaniyakot, Ramgarh, Kutaull, and Mahruri, and lying between 29° 9' and 29° 37' N. and 79° 9' and 79° 56' E., with an area of 433 square miles. Population fell from 46,139 in 1891 to 43,738 in 1901. There are 451 villages, but only one town, Naini Tal, which is the District head-quarters in the hot season (population, 7,609 in winter and 15,164 in summer). The demand for land revenue in 1903-4 was Rs. 33,000, and for cesses Rs. 5,000. The density of population, loi persons per square mile, is higher than in the Himalayan tracts generally. This tract lies entirely in the hills, and is under the charge of a peshkar ox naib-tahsilddr. In 1903-4 the area under cultivation was 54 square miles, of which 13 were irrigated either by small channels from rivers or by canals.
