By separating from Deoria district Kushinagar existence on 13 May 1994 (Earlier known as Padarauna and thereafter renamed Kushinagar since 19th June 1997). During the reign of British, this area was included in Banaras division. But now it is in Gorakhpur division. The district has remained the centre of civilization and culture from earlier times. This place has been a shelter of Rishis, Monks and Ascetics. After the death of Shuja-ud-daula in 1775, Asif-ud-daula assumed the reign of sway. In 1778 Hannary an officer in the British army, was lent to the Avadh Government and was entrusted with the command of the Nawab's soldier for the collection of revenue in this tract. He clearly put in practice supreme power and enacted it with cruelty and calamity. His aim was only to make clear ground for the entry of the British. The mutiny of 1857-58 came after by the transfer of power from East India Company to the British Crown. The town area of Padrauna was established in 1871. In 1873-74 the region was affected by severe famine. The region was again influenced by famine in 1877 and 1896 and in 1906 serious flood affected this region. Mahatma Gandhi started his famous non-co-operation movement in 1920 which was whole heartedly supported by the people of this region. When the Second World War came to an end, the British Crown made up his mind to give complete independence to India. In 1946, the Deoria region was detached from the district of Gorakhpur and was made a separate district. On August15, 1947 India was liberated from British rule and became independent. The map of the Kushinagar District is shown in Exhibit 2.1. Kushinagar, district of the eastern Uttar Pradesh, is known for its cultural heritage all over the world. It is one of the four holiest places for the Buddhists. At Kushinagar, Great Lord Buddha, founder of Buddhism, delivered his last sermon. Outside India, it is an International Buddhist Pilgrimage Centre. The followers of the Buddhism, especially from Asian Countries, wish to visit this place at least once in their lifetime. It constitutes a district of Gorakhpur division occupying the extreme north-eastern corner of Uttar Pradesh with Padrauna as it’s district headquarter. It is bounded by the district Mharajganj on the west as is partly the northern apex which is also flanked on the east by the Betia district of Bihar which along with Gopalganj district (Bihar) forms its eastern boundary . The dividing line is marked by the Gandak and Little Gandak rivers. In the south of this district lies Deoria District. 3.0 THE ADMINISTRATIVE SET-UP OF THE DISTRICT District administration comprises of Revenue, Development, Police (Law and Order), Judiciary, and Local self-government. District Magistrate is In-charge of revenue and administration. He is assisted by Additional District Magistrate (Finance and Revenue) i.e., ADM (F&R). At the tahsil level Sub Divisional Magistrate is In-charge, who is now 5 | P a g e DISTRICT SURVEY REPORT FOR MINOR MINERALS- SAND MINING District- Kushinagar, Uttar Pradesh redesignated as Up-Jila Adhikari. He is assisted by Tahsildars in each tahsil and for revenue collection each tehsil is further entrusted to Naib Tahsildars and Kanongos's circles respectively. For each revenue village, Lekhpal is In-charge. To provide efficient administration, the district Kushinagar is administratively divided into 6 tahsils namely, Padrauna, Hata, Khadda Kaptangaj, Kasya and Tamkuhi Raj.

  • Gandhi As Mahatma: Gorakhpur District, Eastern UP, 1921-2'
    Gandhi as Mahatma 289 of time to lead or influence a political movement of the peasantry. Gandhi, the person, was in this particular locality for less than a day, but the 'Mahatma' as an 'idea' was thought out and reworked in Gandhi as Mahatma: popular imagination in subsequent months. Even in the eyes of some local Congressmen this 'deification'—'unofficial canonization' as the Gorakhpur District, Eastern UP, Pioneer put it—assumed dangerously distended proportions by April-May 1921. 1921-2' In following the career of the Mahatma in one limited area Over a short period, this essay seeks to place the relationship between Gandhi and the peasants in a perspective somewhat different from SHAHID AMIN the view usually taken of this grand subject. We are not concerned with analysing the attributes of his charisma but with how this 'Many miracles, were previous to this affair [the riot at Chauri registered in peasant consciousness. We are also constrained by our Chaura], sedulously circulated by the designing crowd, and firmly believed by the ignorant crowd, of the Non-co-operation world of primary documentation from looking at the image of Gandhi in this district'. Gorakhpur historically—at the ideas and beliefs about the Mahatma —M. B. Dixit, Committing Magistrate, that percolated into the region before his visit and the transformations, Chauri Chaura Trials. if any, that image underwent as a result of his visit. Most of the rumours about the Mahatma.'spratap (power/glory) were reported in the local press between February and May 1921. And as our sample I of fifty fairly elaborate 'stories' spans this rather brief period, we cannot fully indicate what happens to the 'deified' image after the Gandhi visited the district of Gorakhpur in eastern UP on 8 February rioting at Chauri Chaura in early 1922 and the subsequent withdrawal 1921, addressed a monster meeting variously estimated at between 1 of the Non-Co-operation movement.
