About Shimla District

Shimla, once the summer capital of British India, evolved into the capital of Himachal Pradesh post-independence. Initially a cluster of hamlets, its allure lay in the Himalayan forests’ climate, drawing the British to establish this bustling commercial, cultural, and educational hub. The city witnessed pivotal political gatherings like the Simla Deputation (1906), Simla Accord (1914), and Simla Conference (1945). Himachal Pradesh’s formation in 1948, merging 28 princely states, further solidified Shimla’s political importance, culminating in the Simla Agreement of 1972. Renamed from Mahasu district, Shimla persists as a pivotal political center, its history intertwined with significant national events, encapsulating an era of transformation and political significance.

History

Shimla, once a dense forest with sparse civilization, housed the Jakhu Temple and a few dwellings. Named after the Hindu goddess Shyamala Devi, it fell to Bhimsen Thapa of Nepal in 1806. Post the Anglo-Nepalese War, the British East India Company claimed it per the Sugauli Treaty. David Ochterlony seized Malaun fort in 1815, quelling Gurkha leaders. Described as a moderate-sized village in 1817, it housed a fakir offering water to travelers. Lieutenant Ross established a wooden cottage there in 1819 as the Assistant Political Agent in the Hill States. This marked the transformation of Shimla from a modest village to a burgeoning settlement.

Demography

Shimla, as per the 2011 census, spanned 35.34 km² with a population of 169,578 (93,152 males, 76,426 females). The urban agglomeration counted 171,817 individuals, boasting a literacy rate of 93.63%. By 2001, it housed 142,161 people across 19.55 km², hosting a floating population of 75,000 mainly from the service sector. Dominated by ages 16–45 (55%) and 28% under 15, it struggled with a low sex ratio—930 girls per 1,000 boys in 2001. Over time, unemployment declined from 36% (1992) to 22.6% (2006), attributing this change to industrial growth and emerging service sectors.

Geography

Situated amidst the south-western Himalayan ranges, Shimla rests at 31.61°N 77.10°E, standing at 2,206 meters above sea level. Its sprawl spans a ridge with seven spurs, extending 9.2 kilometers from east to west. Identified as Zone IV for earthquake risks, the city faces threats due to weak construction practices and a burgeoning population. Notably, it lacks nearby water bodies; the Sutlej River, its closest, lies 21 kilometers away. In the Shimla district, rivers like the Giri and Pabbar, tributaries of Yamuna, flow farther from the city, shaping the region’s geographical tapestry.

Economy

Shimla, primarily driven by government, tourism, and education sectors, houses a Model Career Centre at Regional Employment Exchange. As a transport and trade hub, it hosts a medical college and four major hospitals, including Indira Gandhi Hospital, Deen Dayal Upadhyay Hospital, Kamla Nehru Hospital, and Indus Hospital. The city aims to emerge as a health tourism destination and hosts major state departmental headquarters like Himachal Pradesh Government Printing and Stationery Press, Himachal Pradesh State Electricity Board, and Himachal Pradesh Police Headquarters, as part of its development plan.
