'''Kalyanpur''' or '''Kalianpur''' (earlier '''Kullianpore''') is a satellite town of [[Kanpur]] in [[Uttar Pradesh]], India. Located about 15 km from [[Kanpur]] on the [[Grand Trunk Road]] towards Delhi, it is effectively a suburb of Kanpur. This town's post office is spelled '''Kalyanpur''', but the station is named Kalianpur, while British records often use the variant spelling "Kullianpur". Kalyanpur is also the name of a different village in East UP.

== History ==
During the [[Indian rebellion of 1857]], [[Nana Sahib]] met rebel company soldiers at Kalyanpur.{{citation needed|date=September 2012}} Soldiers were on their way to Delhi to meet [[Bahadur Shah II]]. After a one-day march, they camped at Kalyanpur on 7 June, where they met [[Nana Sahib]] and [[Azimullah Khan|Azimullah]], who convinced them to turn back and free [[Kanpur]] from the control of [[British India]].

Once it was home to many of the rebellion's most prominent characters, including the Rani of Jhansi, [[Rani Lakshmibai]]. During the [[War of Indian Independence of 1857]], the Mutineering Sepoys marched to Delhi to join the emperor.<ref>

There were a few hours of stillness before the storm; the faithful sepoys were now employed in collecting and carting muskets, ammunition, etc., which had been left about in the native lines. The English officers drew a long breath of relief: the mutineers had doubtless gone off to Delhi. At present they had only gone as far as the treasury, when the Nana met them with an escort and many elephants, swore fidelity to the national cause, and distributed much of the silver among the four regiments. Then the sepoys broke open the gaol and let out a motley host of God-forsaken rascals, who set to work at once and burned and sacked every European house, making a bonfire of all the records in the court-house, civil and criminal alike. The mutineers had travelled on the Delhi road as far as Kullianpur when they were overtaken by the Nana, his two brothers, Bala and Baba Bhut, and Azimoolah.<ref name="mainlesson">{{cite web|url=http://www.mainlesson.com/display.php?author=gilliat&book=mutiny&story=cawnpur|title=The Baldwin Project: Heroes of the Indian Mutiny by Edward Gilliat|publisher=mainlesson.com|access-date=17 October 2014}}</ref><ref name="google">{{cite book|title=The Indian Mutiny|author1=Wilkinson-Latham, C.|author2=Embleton, G.|date=1977|publisher=Osprey|isbn=9780850452594|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=DS--7UwOQ_8C|page=24|access-date=17 October 2014}}</ref>

A non-governmental association, [https://sites.google.com/site/tropicalplantresearch/ Society for Tropical Plant Research] is also working here, and serves the scientific community through its international scientific journal - [http://www.tropicalplantresearch.com/ Tropical Plant Research].
Other schools include DPS Kalyanpur, Dr. V.S.E.C. Awadhpuri, Woodbine Gardenia School, Mantora Public School, etc.

== Connectivity ==
The area has one of the largest vegetable markets in the city due its proximity to the rural areas and nearby districts of western [[Uttar Pradesh]]. The suburb lies on the historic [[Grand Trunk Road]] commonly known as '''G.T.Road''' towards [[Delhi]] which is situated 415 km away.
The Kanpur-Kasganj-Aligarh-Bhiwani Railway line runs just parallel to the G.T.Road in Kalyanpur.

The suburb is well connected with rest of the city by road as well as railways. The industrial area of Panki lies 5 km south of Kalyanpur and is well connected with Kalyanpur.

The pilgrimage village of [[Bithoor]], 12 km away, connects to the GT road here. [[Bithoor]] is connected with Kalyanpur with 2 roads. Formerly the Metre gauge line ran through [[Kalyanpur railway station|Kalyanpur]] and was connected to Brahmavart railway station in [[Bithoor]]. But due to conversion of the [[metre gauge]] railway line to [[broad gauge]] line the railway route to [[Bithoor]] was subsequently closed and the Brahmavart railway station now remains deserted. The [[Indian Railways]] has decided to extend line from [[Mandhana, Kanpur|Mandhana]] Central-[[Safipur]] Junction via Brahmavart Station. There were vital demands from the public to restart the railway route connecting [[Kanpur Central]] railway station to Brahmavarta, Bithoor though the matter remains reserved. The Government is planning new townships in Kalyanpur suburb and many real estates are coming up in the suburb.
