شيلانگ

شيلانگ (انگريزي: Shillong) ڀارت جي رياست ميگهاليا جو گاديءَ جو هنڌ آهي ۽ هڪ مشهور هل اسٽيشن آهي. اهو اوڀر خاصي جابلي ضلعي جو هيڊ ڪوارٽر پڻ آهي. شيلانگ ڀارت جو 330هون سڀ کان وڌيڪ آبادي وارو شهر آهي. سال 2011ع جي مردم شماري مطابق ان جي آبادي 1,43,229 هئي. چيو ويندو آهي ته شهر جي چوڌاري ڦرندڙ ٽڪريون برطانوين کي اسڪاٽلينڊ جي ياد ڏيارينديون هيون، تنهن ڪري، هنن ان کي "اوڀر جو اسڪاٽلينڊ" سڏيندا هئا.

Shillong (, ) is a hill station and the capital of Meghalaya, India. It is the headquarters of the East Khasi Hills district. Shillong is the 330th most populous city in India with a population of 143,229 according to the 2011 census. It is said that the rolling hills around the town reminded the British of Scotland. Hence, they would refer to it as the "Scotland of the East".

Shillong has steadily grown in size since it was made the civil station of the Khasi and Jaintia Hills in 1864 by the British. In 1874, on the formation of Assam as the Chief Commissioner's Province, Shillong was chosen as the headquarters of the new administration because of its convenient location between the Brahmaputra and Surma valleys, and more so because the climate of Shillong was much cooler than that of tropical India. Shillong remained the capital of undivided Assam until the creation of the new state of Meghalaya on 21 January 1972, when Shillong became the capital of Meghalaya, and Assam moved its capital to Dispur in Guwahati.
