Udaipur State, Chhattisgarh : ウィキペディア英語版 | Udaipur State, Chhattisgarh
Udaipur State, was one of the princely states of India during the period of the British Raj.〔(Princely States of India A-J )〕 The town of Dharamjaigarh was the former state's capital. After the Independence of India Udaipur State was merged with the princely states of Raigarh, Sakti, Sarangarh and Jashpur to form the Raigarh district of Madhya Pradesh.〔Publication by Gokhale Institute of Politics and Economics - 1973- Issue 61 - Page 346〕 Now the district of Raigarh is part of Chhattisgarh state. ==Geography== The State of Udaipur was bounded by Surguja State and Jashpur State on its northern side, on the east by Gangpur State and the British Ranchi district, on the south by Raigarh State and on the west by the British Bilaspur district of the Central Provinces. In 1881 the State contained 196 villages and covered an area of 2,732 square km. The total population according to the 1901 Census of India was around 45,000, mostly Hindus. The state was mostly covered by forested hills of sandstone with carboniferous strata, but the extensive coalfields were not exploited. Gold and iron were also found, but in much smaller quantities. The ranges in the area of the state were relatively low, the highest point being Lotta Hill, reaching an elevation of 640 m. The forests were dense, composed mainly of sāl, mahua, kusum and tendu. The Mand River rises near Girsa in Sarguja, draining the southern part of the Mainpat Plateau to the north.〔(Imperial Gazetteer of India, v. 24, p. 83. )〕
