==History==
The district was created as "Bhilsa District" in 1904 by joining the tehsils of [[Vidisha]] (also known as Bhilsa) and [[Basoda]], which were then part of [[Gwalior]] state. After India's independence in 1947, the former princely state of Gwalior became part of [[Madhya Bharat]] state, which was formed in 1948. The Bhilsa District was enlarged in 1949 by the addition of the small princely state of [[Kurwai State]]. The district took its present form in 1956, when [[Madhya Bharat]] state, [[Bhopal State (1949–56)|Bhopal State]], and the [[tehsil]] of [[Sironj]], then part of [[Rajasthan]] state and previously part of the princely state of [[Tonk State|Tonk]], were both merged into Madhya Pradesh state. Sironj tehsil and the small [[pargana]] of Piklone from Bhopal state were merged into Vidisha District.<ref name=admin/>
