ShajaporePostal Covers & Pre-1854 Postal History
Shajapur (the Shajapore of early records) is a town on the Malwa plateau of Madhya Pradesh, headquarters of its district on the Chillar river, a market and route town of central Malwa. It lay on the roads between Ujjain and the northern plains. In the era of the Company's Central India posts it served as a mail town, and its pre-1854 markings record the posts of the Malwa country.
