This district is the newest district of Kumaon Region. The Udham Singh Nagar as this district is known, was formed in the year 1995 in the month of October.Earlier, a part of Nainital, it was broken and named in the memory of Late Shri Udham Singh who was a great freedom fighter, who had killed General Dyer who was responsible for the Jallianwala Bagh Massacre.
This district is a blend of almost everything .On one hand, where it is basically an industrial district, then on the other it is full of Wildlife and Natural beauty. The Himalayan ranges that surround Udham Singh Nagar are perfect in beauty and serenity.
