Lora Tehsil ({{langx|ur|{{Nastaliq|تحصیل لورا}}}}) is an administrative subdivision (tehsil) of Abbottabad District in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province of Pakistan.
History
During the British rule, the current district of Abbottabad was created as a Tehsil of Hazara District.[https://dsal.uchicago.edu/reference/gazetteer/pager.html?objectid=DS405.1.I34_V05_009.gif Abbottābād Tahsīl - Imperial Gazetteer of India, v. 5, p. 1] After Pakistan′s independence from Britain on 14 August 1947, it remained a tehsil of Hazara until 1981 when the old Abbottabad Tehsil became a district, containing two tehsils - Abbottabad and Havelian. In recent years Lower Tanawal itself has been created as a tehsil in its own right.
