Udham Singh Nagar was formed from Nainital district in October 1995. Rudrapur is its headquarters. This distinction matters when reading older Nainital records: a historical district label may not describe today’s boundary.
Landscape and livelihoods
The district introduction describes a Terai economy shaped by agriculture and industry. It also identifies Pantnagar as the home of G.B. Pant University of Agriculture and Technology.
Using district references
Treat a city, an industrial area and a district as separate levels of location. Retain the original wording of an archive, then add a clearly dated current location where it can be verified.
