History edit
Hasanganj was originally a bazaar founded by Hasan Raza Khan, a naib in the service of Asaf-ud-Daula, in the village of Mahadeopur Balamau.[3] It became a tehsil headquarters around 1890, replacing Mohan in this capacity, and the police station was transferred to Hasanganj at the same time.[3]
At the turn of the 20th century, Hasanganj was centred around "a wide street lined with trees and shops on both sides."[3] It was a minor commercial centre and had, in addition to the tehsil office and police station, a dispensary and a road bungalow, as well as an upper primary school with 32 students.[3] Most of the locals were Banias and agriculturalists, and the population in 1901 was 1,310, including a Muslim minority of 255 people.[3]
The 1961 census recorded Hasanganj as comprising 3 hamlets, with a total population of 1,461 (828 male and 633 female), in 268 households and 245 physical houses.[4] The area of the village was given as 318 acres.[4] Average attendance of the biweekly market was about 400.[4] Average attendance at both the Jal Bihar and Kans Lila fairs was recorded as 2,000 people.[4] The police station had a staff of 2 sub-inspectors, 1 head constable, and 14 constables at the time.[4]
