BHATTIANA

This article appears in Volume V03, Page 845 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: BER-BLA
BHATTIANA , a
tract
  of country in the Punjab province of India, covering the Ghaggar valley from Fatehabad in the
district
  of Hissar to Bhatnair in Bikanir. It derives its name from the Bhattis, a wild Rajput clan, who held the country lying between Hariana, Bikanir and Bahawalpur. It skirts the borders of the
great
  sandy desert, and only contains a small and scattered
population
 . This
tract
  was ravaged by Timur in his invasion of India; and in 1795 paid a nominal allegiance to George
Thomas
 , the adventurer of Hariana. After the victories of Lord Lake in 1803 it passed with the rest of the Delhi territory under British
rule
 , but was not settled until 181o. A
district
  of Bhattiana was formed in 1837, but in 1858 it was merged in the
Sirsa
  district, which was divided up in 1884. The Bhattis number some 350,000, and are a fine tall race, making
capital
  soldiers.
