Baran District was carved out of Kota District on April 10, 1991. Most of the existing Baran District was a component of the princely state of Kota, before Indian independence in 1947. However, Shahabad tehsil was a discontinuous portion of Jhalawar princely state and Chabbra tehsil of Tonk princely state. The rulers of the princely states came under the Government of India, after Indian independence. The existing Baran District became a part of Kota District. Baran District is engraved out of Kota district on the date of 10th April, 1991.
