History edit

At the turn of the 20th century, Jaisinghpur was described as a poor village, with narrow, twisting streets.[5] It formed part of the taluqdari estate of the Raja of Hasanpur, serving as a tehsil within the estate.[5] It had a small bazar, where a small sugar refining industry took place, but at that time the sugar refiners were struggling because of competition from beet sugar.[5] Jaisinghpur also had a police station and an upper primary school which was not attended by many students.[5] It was connected by a minor rail line to Sultanpur in one direction and Dostpur in the other.[5] As of 1901, Jaisinghpur had a population of 909.[5]
