Kalyanmal

[2] Historically, the seat of a pargana,[3] Kalyanmal is located 11 km from the city of Beniganj,[4] on the north side of the road leading to Atrauli and Bhatpurwaghat.

[3] Every Sunday during the month of Bhadon, a fair is held at Hattia Haran, a tank south of Kalyanmal where the god Rama is said to have bathed.

[2] According to legend, Kalyanmal was originally called Rathauli because Ramachandra's chariot had stopped here on the way back from Sri Lanka.

[3] Apart from these legends, the earliest record of Kalyanmal's history is the traditional account of its conquest by the Bais raja Kumar sometime before 1400.

[3] The 1961 census recorded Kalyanmal as comprising 17 hamlets, with a total population of 3,393 people (1,805 male and 1,588 female) in 618 households and 498 physical houses.
