About Kanpur City

Kanpur City nestled on the banks of the eternal Ganga, stands as one of North India's major industrial centres with its own historical, religious and commercial importance. Believed to be founded by king Hindu Singh of the erstwhile state of Sachendi, Kanpur was originally known as 'Kanhpur. Historically, jajmau on the eastern outskirts of present day Kanpur is regarded as one of the most archaic tounships of Kanpur continued to survive as an insignificant village. Its fate, however, took a new turn soon after. In May 1765, Shuja-ud-daula, the Nawab Wazir of Awadh, was defeated by the British near Jajmau. It was probably at this time that strategic importance of the site of Kanpur was realised by the British. European businessmen had by this time gradually started establishing themselves in Kanpur. In order to ensure protection of their lives and property the Awadh local forces were shifted here in 1778. Kanpur passed into British hands under the treaty of1801 with Nawab Saadat Ali Khan of Awadh. This forms a turning point in the history of Kanpur. Soon Kanpur became one of the most important military stations of British India.

Linkage and Connectivity

Kanpur City is situated between the parallels of 25026 and 26058 north latitude and 79031 and 80034 east longitude. It is situated on the important national highways no. 2 and 25 and state highway.
