Sadulshahar
Sadulshahar is a town and a municipality in Sri Ganganagar district in the Indian state of Rajasthan. History
The town is named after Maharaja Sardul Singh, son of Maharaja Ganga Singh, who established it. It is a great agriculture based industry centre in Rajasthan. This town is situated on the border of Punjab and Rajasthan. It is a peaceful town in SriGanganagar which was part of the Bikaner State before Independence. According to the people, a large village named "Matili" was transformed into Sadulshahar after 1947. It was under the supervision of the 19-year-old Maharaja Ganga Singh who, after witnessing the miseries of the great 1899 famine, vowed to end starvation by building a canal in his State. The British pussyfooted, refusing water rights from the Sutlej River in Punjab. Ganga Singh persevered and raised a loan of 15 million for his irrigation scheme. The Ganges Canal, begun in 1921, was completed in 1927. One of the longest concrete lined canals in the world, it has changed the desert's face around Ganganagar. It's a testimony to land transformation: Desert land was converted to a lush green town, credited to the efforts of the Maharaja who brought the Gang canal which carries the waters from Punjab and Himachal Pradesh to the region. Bumper crops of wheat, cotton, mustard, and citrus fruit have generated industry and a building boom. The majority of the population are Sikhs and Hindus, while only a few people constituting other sects stay here. Work profile
