Eastern States Union

Eastern States Union

Die Eastern States Union entstand, nachdem das britische Parlament am 15. August 1947 die Unabhängigkeit Indiens und Pakistans beschlossen hatte, und die indischen Fürstenstaaten dadurch unabhängig geworden waren. Die Fürsten der Eastern States Agency schlossen sich zur Eastern States Union zusammen. Am 1. Januar 1948 wurde die Union aufgelöst und die Fürstenstaaten in die Staaten Orissa und Madhya Pradesh eingegliedert.

Zu Orissa kamen die Staaten Gangpur, Bonai, Mayurbhanj (erst am 1. Januar 1949), Bamra, Keonjhar, Rairakhol, Sonpur, Athmallik, Pal Lahara, Talcher, Patna, Boudh, Dhenkanal, Hindol, Daspalla, Narasinghapur, Barhamba, Athgarh, Tigiria, Nayagarh, Ranpur und Kalahandi sowie Kharsawan und Sareikella, die im Mai 1948 an Bihar kamen.

Zu Madhya Pradesh kamen die Staaten Chang Bhakar, Korea, Surguja, Jashpur, Udaipur, Raigarh, Sarangarh, Kawardha, Khairagarh, Nandgaon, Kanker und Bastar. Die meisten dieser Gebiete gehören seit 2000 zum Bundesstaat Chhattisgarh.
