Geography

Bijaipur and Nagla Bhaosingh are the names of two separate settlements, located within a kilometre of each other. Bijaipur is located to the northwest, directly on the north side of the Northern Railway's main line. Nagla Bhaosingh is located to the southeast, directly adjoining the settlement of Nagla Kharagjit to the east. The village of Sargawan is actually somewhat closer to Nagla Bhaosingh than Bijaipur is; Sargawan is west of Nagla Bhaosingh and south-southwest of Bijaipur. The old NH 2 passes by Bijaipur on the north, connecting Firozabad to the northwest with the town of Makkhanpur to the east. Makkhanpur is closer to Bijaipur and Nagla Bhaosingh than Firozabad is; it is actually the closest settlement (whether urban or rural) to both sites. It is east of Bijaipur and northeast of Nagla Bhaosingh. The tehsil boundary is just east of Bijaipur and Nagla Bhaosingh..[2]
