'''Tejpura''' is a town, apparently in [[Mahesana Taluka]], Mehsana District, and former minor [[princely state]] in [[Gujarat]], western India.<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
The jurisdictional state in [[Mahi Kantha]] was part of [[Katosan State|Katosan]] ''[[Princely states|Thana]]'' and was ruled by [[Kshatriya]] [[Makwana]] [[Koli people|Koli]] Chieftains.<ref>{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=NhcIAQAAIAAJ&q=Tejpura+Koli&pg=PA428|title=Gazetteer of the Bombay Presidency: Cutch, Pálanpur, and Mahi Kántha|date=1880|publisher=Government Central Press|language=en}}</ref><br />
<br />
In 1901 it has a population of 1,034, yielding (together with the personal union) a state revenue of 3,500 Rupees (1903-4, all from land), paying 308 Rupees tribute to the Gaekwar [[Baroda State]].<ref>{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=drsMAAAAIAAJ&q=Tejpura&pg=PA329|title=Gazetteer of the Bombay Presidency ...|last=State)|first=Bombay (India|date=1883|publisher=Printed at the Government Central Press|language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book|url=https://archive.org/details/gazetteerofterri00thorrich|page=[https://archive.org/details/gazetteerofterri00thorrich/page/922 922]|quote=Tejpura.|title=A Gazetteer of the Territories Under the Government of the Viceroy of India|last=Thornton|first=Edward|date=1886|publisher=W.

<br />
In 1940, the [[Attachment Scheme]] saw Tejpura and many other (tributary) petty (e)states merged into the Gaekwar [[Baroda State]], its suzerain [[salute state]], which in 1949 merged into independent India's [[Bombay State]].<br />
