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.

These two isolated tracts form a sub thasil of Simla District, Punjab, lying between 30 58' and 31 8' N. and 77 i 7 and 77 15' E., with an area of 25 square miles.
