History

Before the formation of the Republic of India, the territory of present-day Bhindar tehsil was part of the former Udaipur State. [2] 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 the territory of present-day Bhindar tehsil. [2]

In 1959, the sub-tehsil of Bhindar was created within Vallabhnagar tehsil. [3] After a nearly 40-year long struggle by local activists to obtain tehsil status, Bhindar became a tehsil in 2017. [3] [4]

The area of Bhindar tehsil is 341 square kilometres. [1] The annual average rainfall in the tehsil is 608 mm, with an average of 30 rainy days per year. [5] [6]
