History

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.

Geography

The area of Vallabhnagar tehsil is 539 square kilometres. [1] [2] The annual average rainfall in Vallabhnagar tehsil is 608 mm, with an average of 30 rainy days per year. [6]
