== History ==<br />
{{unsourced|section|date=November 2018}}<br />
In the early 17th century, two cousins of the Agnikul [[Chauhan]] Raja of [[Mainpuri]], Dalthamban Sahi and Dharamel Sahi, were returning from a pilgrimage to [[Jagannath Temple (Puri)|Jagannath Puri]]. They had a small force with them. On their return journey, they halted at the Capital of [[Surguja State]], [[Ambikapur, India|Ambikapur]]. They camped near the Joda talab (Bhaiya Bada) which still exists to this day. The Maharaja of Surguja was away from the Capital and some rebel [[sardar]]s of the State surrounded the palace. The Rani came to know that the Chauhan brothers were camping near the [[Joda Talab]]. She sent the traditional Rakhi. Dalthamban Sahi and Dharamel Sahi came to her rescue and drove away the bagi sardars. A major part of their force was killed in the encounter. After some time the Maharaja returned. He thanked the Chauhan brothers for rescuing the Rani and offered them the [[Jagirdari]] of the area on the northern part of the state known as [[Jhilmili Estate]]. This was accepted by the older brother Dalthamban Sahi. A part of Jhilmili Area was under control of [[Baland]] Rajas.<br />
<br />
The Chauhan brothers settled at Kaskela village on the banks of the Rend River. They drove away the forces of Baland from the area and overpowered the [[Pakharia]]s who were perpetually rebelling against the Surguja State. They paid an Annual Tribute to the Surguja State. The title of Bhaiya was conferred on the family by Maharajah Amar Singh Deo Bahadoor "[[Surguja State]]". Since after the tying of the Rakhi, the brothers had become bhaiyas of Rani, the ilaka (area) was known as Bhaiyasthan. This was later known as Bhaiyathan.<br />
<br />
On 10 February 1872, A Khilat was granted by the court of commissioner esq. the title of Bhaiya Bahadur was also granted to shri Fateh Narayan Singh illakedar of Jhilimi Surguja for meritorious services to the government.<br />
The Title of Bhaiya Bahadur was Granted by Raja Bahadur BINDESHWARI PRASAD Singh Deo [[Companion of the Order of the Star of India|C.S.I]] of [[Udaipur State]]" Manager Court of Ward "[[Surguja State]]". Younger Son of Maharajah Amar Singh Deo Bahadoor "[[Surguja State]]".<br />
