History
Bap Tehsil was created in Jodhpur District in 2012 out of the northern part of Phalodi Tehsil. Prior to that the area had been an independent sub-tehsil with its own local council (panchayat samiti).{{Cite web|title=Administrative Setup|publisher=Jodhpur District|url=http://www.jodhpur.nic.in/as.htm|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20021225084134/http://www.jodhpur.nic.in/as.htm|archivedate=25 December 2002|url-status=dead}}
In August 2023 the Bap Tehsil was reduced in size with the eastern part separated off into the new Ghantiyali Tehsil, and both were incorporated into the new Phalodi District.{{Cite news|last=Moiwala |first=Heena |date=7 August 2023 |title=Rajasthan Cabinet gives green light to New Districts and Divisions |newspaper=Udaipur Times |url=https://udaipurtimes.com/news/rajasthan-new-divisions-and-districts/cid11793722.htm |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231201233805/https://udaipurtimes.com/news/rajasthan-new-divisions-and-districts/cid11793722.htm |archive-date=1 December 2023 |url-status=live }}
