Bidhwan Jaglan Zaildar[edit]

Bidhwan Jaglan Zail (बिधवान जागलान ज़ैल) was headquartered in the Bidhwan (बिधवान) village and ruled by the Jaglan clan.[citation needed] It covered four villages in Erstwhile Loharu State in the Hisar district. These villages, Bidhwan, Kalali (कलाली), Mandholi Khurd (मंढोली खुर्द) and Siwach lie in Bhiwani district. The Zail and Zaildar systems were abolished in 1952,[3] and the Jaglan family now continues as Lambardar.[citation needed]
