Chhuikhadan covered an area of 451 km2 (174 sq mi), of which 27,907 acres (11,294 ha) were cultivated, and 48,538 acres (19,643 ha) were cultivable. There were 120 villages in 1870 with a population of 13,281. By 1941, the population had increased to 32,731.[2] The capital of the state was Chhuikhadan.
The Chiefs of Chhuikhadan were originally under the Bhonsles of Nagpur, the first Chief being Mahant Rup Das in 1750. However, after the defeat of Marathas, they were recognized by the British as feudatory chiefs in 1865 conferring the title and sanad to Mahant Laxman Das.[3]Shrimant Mahant Rituparna Kishore Das, the last ruling chief of Chhuikhadan acceded to the Union of India on 1 February 1948.[4]
At India's independence on 1 January 1948, the state was merged into India.[5] The former royal palace is still in very good condition.[6]
