Govt District Court Angul Jobs 2023 - Sarkari Naukri

Angul, being centrally located, serves as the bridge between the western and coastal regions of Orissa. From the available historical documents, it is revealed that the district existed as far back as in the prehistoric and the protohistoric periods. However Angul still retains its cultural identity, inspite of being colonized by different civilizations.

The history of Angul is recorded from the time when it survived as a feudatory kingdom inhabited by the Khonds. But the successive waves of the Hindu immigrants had driven back the Khonds. Finally, the loosely formed principalities of the ancient times came under the sway of the Hindu military chiefs, who were often at dispute with one another.

The excavated relics indicates that the earliest ruling families of Angul were the Kadamba Kings belonging to the Kashyapa Gotra. Raja Dhanurjjaya Singh Jagaddeva was the foremost ruler of the dynasty, who consolidated the border villages like Khargaprasad, Mangalpur and Kamlang and constituted an integrated whole of the Angul Kingdom. The other great rulers of note are Raja Nityanand Singh Jagaddeva, Raja Krushna Chandra and Raja Somnath Singh. According to the history of Angul, Raja Krushna Chandra is the father of cultural tradition of Angul. Being issueless, he was succeeded by his younger brother. But in spite of being a competent ruler, he had to acknowledge his territory to the vibrant Marathas.
