Shikarpur District

This article has been extracted from THE IMPERIAL GAZETTEER OF INDIA , 1908. OXFORD, AT THE CLARENDON PRESS.

Note: National, provincial and district boundaries have changed considerably since 1908. Typically, old states, ‘divisions’ and districts have been broken into smaller units, and many tahsils upgraded to districts. Some units have since been renamed. Therefore, this article is being posted mainly for its historical value.

Former District in Sind, Bombay, lying be- tween 27 and 29 N. and 67 and 70 E., and comprising the four subdivisions of Rohri, Sukkur, Larkana, and Mehar. Of these, the last two were detached in 1901 to form the new District of Larkana, and the other two now constitute Sukkur District. See LARKANA and SUKKUR DISTRICTS.
