History

Lalgarh Jattan is a large village in Sri Ganganagar district of Rajasthan, established approximately two hundred years ago. After some time, in 1902, Haryanvi people came to the village. Because they were Jaats, the village took the name "Lalgarh Jattan". At the time, the villager life cycle was very short due to the limited resources of the area. There was very little water for drinking. In 1961 this village connected to a link road. In 1964, a local water system was created. In 1968, the first bus was run between Sriganganagar to Hanumangarh. Electricity came in 1964 and a post office opened in 1950. In 1976, the post office branch changed into a sub post office. On 31 January 1972, the state banks of Bikaner and Jaipur opened branches there, followed by the first The Ganganagar kendriya Sahakari Bank, opened in 1982.
