History of New Tehri

New Tehri has been created after the building of Tehri Dam due to which the old Tehri submerged under the water.
New Tehri is the only planned city of Uttarakhand which is developing as a popular tourist spot because of its pleasant temperature and salubrious weather.
The town also has a rich history to share. It was previously ruled by the Parmar (Shah) Dynasty until the Gurkhas invaded Garhwal in 1803.
However, British took over its control in 18th century and merged Kumaon, Dehradun, and east Garhwal into the British Empire.
After independence, in August 1949, Tehri Riyasat was merged with Uttar Pradesh and a new district called Rudraprayag was declared. Later on February 24, 1960, the state government separated one of its tehsils and introduced a new district called Uttarkashi.
