Bijnor is a district in Uttar Pradesh. The district headquarters are located at Bijnor City. It is a lowland area along the River Ganga. The place is cultivable as it has rich alluvial soil in most parts. The rising terrace has uncultivable soil. Hindi is the main language spoken in this area. The language is also sometimes called Rohilkhandi but there is hardly any marked distinction. Hence, western Hindi is the native language and is quite prominent.

Bijnor  History

The Nawab of Oudh joined hands with the Rohillas to overthrow the Marathas from the region in exchange of money. He did his job but the Rohillas refused to pay. To avenge the disloyalty, the Nawab made a treaty with the British East India Company in 1774 to assist him in the enforcement. The Rohillas were thus driven out of Bijnor and the district came under the hands of the Nawab. From him, it passed to Britis East India Company in 1774. . From this time the history of Bijnor is uneventful until the Mutiny of 1857, when it was occupied by the nawab of Najibabad, a grandson of Zabita Khan. The Nawab managed to maintain his throne until April 21, 1858 despite the disputes between the Hindus and the Muslims Pashtuns. He was then defeated by the British at Nagina Main.
