The '''Jubbulpore Division''', named after its capital [[Jabalpur]] (Jubbulpore), was one of the four former administrative divisions of the [[Central Provinces]] of [[British India]]. It was located in the [[Mahakoshal]] region of present-day [[Madhya Pradesh]] state of [[India]]. The Jubbulpore Division had an area of 48,401 km² with a population of 2,201,633 in 1881.<ref>Hunter, William Wilson, Sir, et al. (1908). ''[[Imperial Gazetteer of India]]'', Volume 6. 1908-1931; Clarendon Press, Oxford.</ref><br />
<br />
The Central Provinces became the [[Central Provinces and Berar]] in 1936 until the [[Independence of India]].<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
Immediately after occupation of the area around Jubbulpore the British authorities established a provisional administration under the superintendent of Political Affairs of [[Bundelkhand]]. In 1820 a division containing 12 districts was formed which was known as the Agency of the [[Saugor and Nerbudda Territories]].<ref>Henry Harpur Spry''Modern India: With Illustrations of the Resources and Capabilities of Hindustan,'' Volume 2.

Jubbulpore Division was established in 1861 when the Saugor and Nerbudda Territories were merged with [[Nagpur Province]], which the British had annexed in 1853, in order to form the [[Central Provinces]].<ref>{{cite book |url=http://www.lib.virginia.edu/area-studies/SouthAsia/Ideas/CP/ch02regions.html |title= Colonial Administration and Social Developments in middle India: The Central Provinces, 1861-1921 - Ph.
