Rewa Kantha was a political agency of British India, managing the relations of the British government of the Bombay Presidency with a collection of princely states. It stretched for about 150 miles between the plain of Gujarat and the hills of Malwa, from the Tapti River to the Mahi River crossing the Narmada or Rewa River, from which it takes its name.〔("Gazetteer of the Bombay Presidency" )〕 The political agent, who was also collector of the British District of the Panchmahal, resided at Godhra. ==History== The states came under British subsidiary alliances after the Third Anglo-Maratha War of the early 19th century.〔''Historical Sketch of the Native States of India.'' 1875〕 In 1937 the princely states of the Rewa Kantha Agency were merged with Baroda State in order to form the Baroda and Gujarat States Agency.〔(History of the State of Gujarat )〕 After the Independence of British India in 1947, as India and Pakistan, the rulers of the states all agreed to accede to the Government of India and were integrated into Bombay State. Bombay state was split along linguistic lines in 1960, and Rewa Kantha became part of Gujarat. 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「Rewa Kantha Agency」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
