Jabalpur Division

Jabalpur Division is an administrative geographical unit of Madhya Pradesh state of India. Jabalpur is the administrative headquarters of the division. Currently (2005), the division consists of districts of Balaghat, Chhindwara, Jabalpur, Katni, Mandla, Narsinghpur, and Seoni.

Jabalpur Division was originally constituted as a division of the Central Provinces of British India in 1861. The British division included the districts of Jabalpur, Sagar, Damoh, Seoni, and Mandla. The Central Provinces became the new state of Madhya Pradesh after India's independence from the United Kingdom in 1947. Balaghat District was formerly part of the Central Provinces' Nagpur Division, but became part of Jabalpur Division when the rest of Nagpur Division was transferred to Bombay State in 1956.

Famous quotes containing the word division:

    “In this world, which is so plainly the antechamber of another, there are no happy men. The true division of humanity is between those who live in light and those who live in darkness. Our aim must be to diminish the number of the latter and increase the number of the former. That is why we demand education and knowledge.”
    —Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
