Uttar Pradesh, India. Jhansi was an independent princely state ruled by the Maratha Newalkar dynasty under suzerainty of British India from 1804 till 1853, when the British authorities took over the state under the terms of the Doctrine of Lapse, and renamed it the Jhansi State. Before the takeover, it was under the Peshwas from 1728 to 1804.

Far Jhansi's best-known inhabitant was Rani Lakshmi Bai, sometimes described as "India's Joan of Arc", who ruled it in the mid-19th century. She was the widow of the Rajah and, by Indian reckoning, on the old boy's demise their son inherited the throne and she became regent since the lad was quite young.

The Indian National Army (INA; Azad Hind Fauj / ˈ ɑː z ɑː ð ˈ h i n ð ˈ f ɔː dʒ /; lit. 'Free Indian Army') was a collaborationist armed unit of Indian collaborators that fought under the command of the Japanese Empire. It was founded on 1 September 1942 in Southeast Asia during World War II.

This new industrial city is slated to be constructed in the Jhansi district, marking a momentous milestone 47 years after the inception of Noida. This strategic move holds the potential to bolster the burgeoning defence corridor, with Jhansi serving as a pivotal node within this ambitious plan.

Jhansi ki Rani, also known as Rani Lakshmibai, was a brave ruler of the princely kingdom of Jhansi (presently located in the Jhansi district in Uttar Pradesh). She was a legendary character who was involved in the early Indian Rebellion of 1857 and is linked to early resistance to the British Raj.
