HISTORY The erstwhile Kishtwar state was usurped by maharaja the dogra ruler of , in the year 1821 A.D. and downgraded it to the status of a province under a governor . in 1875 A.D .Maharaja Ranbir Singh further downgraded it to the status of a district. Ultimately in 1909 A. D. Maharaja Pratab Singh made it a Tehsil of District ., with its headquarter at Doda city was carved out of in 1948 A.D. Thus the erstwhile state of Kishtwar was brought down to the status of a Tehsil of Doda district in a phased manner. Doda was then a Niabat (Sub Tehsil) of Ramban Tehsil . was then a full-fledged Tehsil including the areas of present Gundoh and Thatri Tehsils. The claim of Kishtwar to be the seat of district administration was ignored .people of Kishtwar, especially those hailing from far off places like Marwah, Warwan , Dacchan ,Chatru, and Padder, had to face great hardships and discomfort while going to and coming from district headquarter. They have to travel long distances on foot in absence of motorabe roads. Nature, too was averse to the prosperity of people of Kishtwar. It has a land locked area and thus nestles in rain shadow. Monsoons hardly cross high mountains for a shower which made this area of Kishtwar drought prone area. Irrigation facilities were non-existant. Canals constructed at various places had been abandoned before completation there by putting the state exchequer to great financial loss and with not even nominal outcome. Nobody bothered for the development of Kishtwar.

Kishtwar has played a vital role in shaping the destiny of its adjoining areas. It has bequeathed to the posterity a secular outlook hundreds of year ago. There was no other erstwhile princely state in which had Mohd Tej Singh, Anayatullah Singh etc, a synthesis of Hindu Muslim name , as its rules. Kirat singh was first raja of Kishtwar who became a mohammadan in about 1664 A.D. at the hands of mughal emperor Aurangzeb in with the title of Saadatyar Khan but he preferred to be called kirat singh instead of muslim name of khan.Mohd Teg Singh was the last ruler who had three sons namely jai mal singh, Dilawar Singh and Zowar singh .all the musllim rulers of Kishtwar allowed the royal prests to perform religious functions of rajas although they offered five times prauyar according tyo muslim faith also .even Sarthal Yatra performed by the Hindu Rajas ,earlier was not stopped but encouraged the tombs of Shah Farid-ud-din and Shah Assrar-ud-din attracted devotes from both Hindu and Muslim communities. Some of the fairs and festivals were also common. Fundamentalism and communalism had no place in the society. Thus Kishtwar allowed a harmonious culture to flourish in its salubrious climate. This gave birth to a unified culture. The bonds of brotherhood were thus cemented. This is a peculiarity of Kishtwar.

The erstwhile Kishtwar state was divided into nine paragon or cantons of Kishtwar proper, Nagseni, Padder, Marwah, Warwan, Dachhan, Kontwara, Saroor, Sarthal, Udil, consisting of 156 revenue villages. All these have now been divided into 11 (eleven) Tehsils .namely Kishtwar, Chatroo, Mughal maidan, Marwah,Dachhan, Warwan, Padder(Atholi), Machail, Nagseni, Drabshallah, and Bounjwah. and 13 blocks. The erstwhile Kishtwar state was flourishing state. The king of Kishtwar had its own army and a fort or Qila on a hillock near Kishtwar town which was manned by the garrisons of 15 to 20 soldiers. Kishtwar approved for district status on july 06, 2006 by the state Cabinet headed by , Hon’ble Chief Minister J&K State and son of the soil, started functioning from 1st april ,2007 with Shahid Anayatullah, hailing from Bhaderwah, as its 1st Deputy Commisioner. Conferring of district status to Kishtwar had been widely hailed and lauded by the people of Kishtwar for this great historic decision which hitherto did not find favour at the hands of valley based Chief Ministers. at present has an area of 7824 sq.kms excluding some forest area . it is the largest district in jammu and division which stands at no. 3 position after and of division having 45110 sq kms and 14036 sq.kms at their areas respectively.
