Vallabhnagar is a tehsil of Udaipur district in Rajasthan, India.
History
Before the formation of the Republic of India, the territory of present-day Vallabhnagar tehsil was part of the former Udaipur State.{{Cite book|url=http://www.censusindia.gov.in/2011census/dchb/0832_PART_B_DCHB_UDAIPUR.pdf|title=District Census Handbook Udaipur, Village and Town Wise Primary Census Abstract|last=|first=|publisher=Directorate of Census Operations|year=2011|isbn=|location=|pages=}} With the formation of the United State of Rajasthan (precursor to the state of Rajasthan) in 1948, the new district of Udaipur was constituted which included Vallabhnagar tehsil.
In 2017, Bhindar tehsil, which had been a sub-tehsil of Vallabhnagar tehsil since 1959,{{cite news |last1=Singh |first1=Madhulika |title=Chaalis saal ke sangharsh ke baad aakhir badli tasvir, Udaipur jile ki is tehsil me hua yeh bada badlav |url=https://www.patrika.com/udaipur-news/subdivision-office-renames-after-40-years-bhinder-udaipur-2555725/ |accessdate=18 April 2019 |work=Patrika |date=27 March 2018}} was declared to be a separate tehsil.{{cite book |title=Notification F.33(81)(4)(1) Various/CTAD/2018/19494-502 |date=5 June 2018 |publisher=Government of Rajasthan |url=http://tad.rajasthan.gov.in/content/dam/doitassests/tad/Pdf/Exttsp.pdf |accessdate=20 April 2019}} This restructuring reduced Vallabhnagar tehsil's area from 983 square kilometers to 383 square kilometers.
