Bhind City Helpline

This City of Madhya Pradesh is geographically known for its Ravines. As per the History, the City is named after the Bhindi Rishi (Sage Bhindi).It is well known fact that the region has been subjected to depredations of dacoits, robbers or thugs since ages. The majestic Chambal, surrounded yawning chasms and gaping beehads (ravines) provide an ideal setting to this murky banditry in a big way. Even during Mughal times the powerful administration failed to curb these menace. As many as 216 dacoits were shot dead and 697 arrested in Bhind district alone from 1959 to 1963.

The Sex ratio of the City according to 2001 census is 829.Rural sex ratio is the number of females per 1000 males.The soil of Bhind is very fertile and is well drained by the Chambal and Sind rivers and the tributary streams of the Kunwari.
