Bijnor
Bijnor, or more correctly Bijnor, occupies the north-west corner of the Rohilkhand or Bareilly Division, and is a roughly triangular stretch of country with its apex to the north. The western boundary is formed throughout by the deep stream of the river Ganges, beyond which lie the four districts of Dehradun, Saharanpur, Muzaffarnagar and Meerut, all belonging to the meerut Division. To the north and north-east in the hill country of Garhwal, the dividing ling being the submountane road, which runs from Haridwar along the foot of the Himalayas to Ramanagar, Haldwani and Tanakpur.All tour and Travel needs for India by Indian travel agent. This road, popularly known as the Kandi Saradk, belongs throughout its length to Garhwal, the transfer having taken place a few years ago. On the east the Phika river for the greater part of its course constitutes the boundary, separating this district from NainiTal and Moradabad, as far as its junction with the Ramganga; and to the south lie the Thakurdwara, Amroha and Hasanpur tahsils of Moradabad, the boundary being conventional and undetermined by natural features. The extreme parallels of north latitude are 29 2' and 29 58' and of east longitude 78 0' and 78 57' from Lalitpur, the most northerly point, to koti Rao in the furthest eastern corner the distance in 56 miles; and from koti Rao to Kamharia in the south-westerly angle 57 miles; and from Kamharia to Lalitpur 62 Miles. The total area of the district is liable to change slightly from time to time by reason of the erratic action of the Ganges and Ramganga: in 1906 it amounted to 1,145,272 acres of 1789-5 square miles, the average for the last five years being 1,147,967 acres.

There remains the low fringe of khadir along the Ganges to the west. This generally resembles the lowlands that skirt the rivers of the interior, the low flats which adjoin the stream itself being purely alluvial in character, while above them rises a terrace of higher ground extending inland as far as the chain of staguant morasses lying immediately under the bangar cliff. But the khadir in the district, at any rate in the southern parganas, in of a very poor description and no whit better than that on the opposite bank in Muzaffarnagar and Meerut.

The common tongue of the people in the Urdu or Hindustani dialect of western Hindi. It has sometimes been classified separately as Rohilkhandi, but there is really no marked distinction in idiom or vocabulary between this and Hindustani. The last census returns show that the entire population, with the exception of a minute fragment of 740 persons in all, gave Western Hindi as their mother-tongue, and there is no district in the United provinces in which Urdu is more widely spoken, both by the peasants and the educated classes. The other languages enumerated were Punjabi, Pahari, Marwari, Bengali and English, the last occurring in 35 cases only
