About Aminagar urf bhurbaral

Western Uttar Pradesh, is a region in India that comprises the western districts of Uttar Pradesh state, including the areas of Rohilkhand and Braj. The region has some demographic, economic and cultural patterns that are distinct from other parts of Uttar Pradesh, and more closely resemble those of Haryana and Rajasthan states.[1][2] Western Uttar Pradesh has experienced rapid economic growth, in a fashion similar to Haryana and Punjab, due to the successes of the Green Revolution.[3][4][5] A major part of western Uttar Pradesh is a part of National Capital Region of India. The population of Western Uttar Pradesh is composed of a varied set of communities and tribes, including Ahirs, Brahmins, Dalits, Gujjars, Jats, Jatavs, Kurmis, Rajputs, Rohilla Pashtuns, Chamars and Tyagis.[7] According to Hindustan Times, Jats make up around 17% of the population of western Uttar Pradesh.[8][9] These various castes are concentrated in this region and "comprise nearly 40 per cent of the population in Meerut, Muzaffarnagar, Saharanpur, and Bijnor districts" of Western Uttar Pradesh.[7][10] As per 2001 Census, the total population of Western Uttar Pradesh is 55,717,132, out of which 72.69% is Hindu and 25.89% is Muslim.[6] Although Hindus are in a large majority, the percentage of Muslims in Western Uttar Pradesh (~26%) is higher than in Uttar Pradesh as a whole (where it is 17%).[11][12] Out of 77 assembly seats in this region, Muslim candidates won 26 seats in the 2012 assembly elections.[13]"Several communities are bi-religious, with both Hindu and Muslim components, e.g. the Tyagis who have a Muslim Tyagi subcommunity although they are largely Hindu.[14] The region's Rohillas are descended from immigrant groups from centuries ago, and a large subregion of Western Uttar Pradesh, Rohilkhand, takes its name from that Pashtun tribe.[15] Sikhs from West Punjab, which came from Pakistan after partition, also migrated to the area in large numbers.[16] Western Uttar Pradesh has gained notoriety for accounting for 30 per cent of the total honor killings in the country, according to a survey done by AIDWA.
