''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. ''
=Satpuras, East=
The eastern extension of the Satpura Hills of 
Central India, lying east and south of the Son. In the United 
Provinces they form a wilderness of parallel ridges of low rocky hills, 
extending over 1,700 square miles in the south of Mirzapur, and 
covered with jungle, with the exception of a large basin in tappet 
Singrauli and a smaller area in DudhI where the soil is alluvial and 
allows cultivation. Coal has been found in Singrauli, and an attempt 
was made in 1896 to work it The few inhabitants are chiefly jungle 
tribes, Kols, &c., resembling those in Chota Nagpur.
