Jasrapur

Location of Jasrapur in Jhunjhunu district

Jasrapur (जसरापुर) is a large village in Khetri tahsil of Jhunjhunu district in Rajasthan. Its ancient name was Babberaka (बब्बेरक).

History

Babberaka (बब्बेरक) is mentioned in the Lalilavigraharaja-nataka. The Prabandhachintamani calls it Bambera. Dr. Kielhorn's identification of the town with Baghera, 47 miles to the south-east of Ajmer, does not appear to be right. It is actually near Jasrapur (Khetri, Jaipur Division, Rajasthan). Dasharatha Sharma identifies Vavvera with Jasrapur which is 6 miles from Khetri (p.68). But it may be Babai Jhunjhunu in Khetri tahsil.

Population

As per Census-2011 statistics, Jasrapur village has the total population of 10094 (of which 5413 are males while 4681 are females).
