Bhabhar entered into agreements with the British Government in 1820. It was under [[Palanpur Agency]] of [[Bombay Presidency]], which in 1925 became the [[Banas Kantha Agency]]. After [[Independence of India]] in 1947, Bombay Presidency was reorganized in [[Bombay State]]. When [[Gujarat]] state was formed in 1960 from Bombay State, it fell under [[Banaskantha district]] of Gujarat.<br />
