History
Kaudiya. — A large village in the Gadarwara tahsil about two miles from Gadarwara on the old Bombay road. Its population in 1901 was 2500 persons as against 3200 in 1891. The importance of Kaudiya in past times was due to the fact that it was a considerable cotton-mart, but its proximity to Gadarwara is probably the cause of the present decline in the population, the latter town being in a more favourable position for the local trade. Kaudiya has a bi-weekly cattle-market, which is the largest in the Gadarwara tahsil. Fees on the registration of sales of cattle amount to about Rs. 900 annually, which sum is applied to the sanitation of the village. The village belonged to the Gangai Raj-Gond family, but was held in inferior proprietary right by a Sanadhya Brahman. It has recently been sold to the Kalar family of Sainkheda.
