History

edit

Before the formation of the Republic of India, the territory of present-day Vallabhnagar tehsil was part of the former Udaipur State.[1] With the formation of the United State of Rajasthan (precursor to the state of Rajasthan) in 1948, the new district of Udaipur was constituted which included Vallabhnagar tehsil.[1]

In 2017, Bhindar tehsil, which had been a sub-tehsil of Vallabhnagar tehsil since 1959,[4] was declared to be a separate tehsil.[5] This restructuring reduced Vallabhnagar tehsil's area from 983 square kilometers to 383 square kilometers.
