Kalianpur is a Town of North Kanpur in Uttar Pradesh, India. Located about 15 km from Kanpur, on the Grand Trunk Road towards Delhi, it is effectively a suburb of Kanpur. The Post Office is spelled 'Kalyanpur', but the station is named Kalianpur, while British records often have it as Kullianpur. Kalyanpur is also the name of a different village in East UP. == History == Kalyanpur is a suburban area of Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh state of India. This Area is famous in the history as during Indian rebellion of 1857, Nana Sahib met the rebel Company soldiers at Kalyanpur. The soldiers were on their way to Delhi, to meet Bahadur Shah II . After a days march, they had camped at Kalianpur on 7 June, when they were met by Nana Sahib and Azimullah and convinced to turn back, to free Kanpur from the control of British_India . It was at one time home to many of the rebellion's most prominent characters including the Rani of Jhansi, Rani_Lakshmibai.During the War of Indian Independence of 1857, the mutineering sepoys were marching to Delhi to join the emperor.〔 〕 There were a few hours of stillness before the storm; the faithful sepoys were now employed in collecting and carting muskets, ammunition, etc., which had been left about in the native lines. The English officers drew a long breath of relief: the mutineers had doubtless gone off to Delhi. At present they had only gone as far as the treasury, when the Nana met them with an escort and many elephants, swore fidelity to the national cause, and distributed much of the silver among the four regiments. Then the sepoys broke open the gaol and let out a motley host of God-forsaken rascals, who set to work at once and burned and sacked every European house, making a bonfire of all the records in the court-house, civil and criminal alike. The mutineers had travelled on the Delhi road as far as Kullianpur when they were overtaken by the Nana, his two brothers, Bala and Baba Bhut, and Azimoolah.〔http://www.mainlesson.com/display.php?author=gilliat&book=mutiny&story=cawnpur〕〔http://books.google.co.in/books?id=DS--7UwOQ_8C&pg=PA24&lpg=PA24&dq=kullianpur&source=bl&ots=17zwnf7hIw&sig=9JJdHQnZW6Qhl8ajCkx7YBap22g&hl=en&sa=X&ei=Xq83T-vTBMnWrQejkfjVBQ&ved=0CDYQ6AEwBA#v=onepage&q=Kullia&f=false〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kalianpur」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
