Lohardaga — Travel Guide
Lohardaga is a district located in the south western part of Jharkhand. The district of Lohardaga was carved from Ranchi in 1983, during which the town was made its headquarters. The habitation of the region dates back to the era of Lord Mahavira, which has a reference in the Jain scriptures. Besides, there is another mention of the town as Kismate Lohardaga in the famous book on Akbar, 'Ain-e-akbari'. However, Lohardaga owes its name to iron mining and smelting in the yesteryears. During 1765, the destination was under the rule of the British. In 1972, Lohardaga was declared as a sub division and as a district on 17th May 1983 by the Bihar government.
