Bamyoli Village, Bhikiyasain, Almora, Uttarakhand

Bamyoli Village, Bhikiyasain, Almora, Uttarakhand

Bamyoli is a small village in Bhikiyasain tehsil of Almora district, Uttarakhand. The village comes under Bhikiyasain development block and has its own Bamyoli Gram Panchayat. The official Census records identify Bamyoli with village code 051745. 

With just a few dozen households, Bamyoli has the scale of a small rural settlement. Its administrative connection with Bhikiyasain and nearby villages is an important part of everyday life in the area.

Life in Bamyoli

Bamyoli is a small settlement within the wider rural landscape of Bhikiyasain. Like other villages in the area, residents are connected with nearby settlements for services and activities that may not be available within the village itself.

This gives us a useful picture of the village's economic activity at the time of the Census. Cultivation was clearly an important part of the recorded working pattern.

At the same time, these figures are more than a decade old. They should not be used to claim that most people in Bamyoli are still cultivators today. Current employment, migration and farming practices may be different.

Location and Administration

The official Census catalogue places Bamyoli within Bhikiyasain sub-district and identifies it with code 051745. 

Suggested Village Statistical Location: Bhikiyasain sub-district headquarters is about 22 km away, while Ranikhet is about 35 km away in a database. These are reference distances and should not be treated as exact modern road distances. 

Land and Geographical Area

Census-linked village records give Bamyoli a geographical area of approximately 94.3 hectares. 

That is around 0.94 square kilometres.

The small population of the village in relation to the registered geographical area gives it the characteristics of a rural settlement with low density. However, information on forest cover, agricultural land, elevation or water sources should only be added once they are specifically verified for Bamyoli.

Agriculture in Bamyoli

Agriculture is one of the clearer themes in the available Census data.

Of the 60 main workers recorded in 2011, 55 were classified as cultivators. No main agricultural labourers were recorded in the available dataset. 

This indicates that cultivation was closely connected with the village's recorded workforce at that time.

We should not, however, add specific crop names without evidence. If local information becomes available, this section could be expanded with details about seasonal crops, livestock, traditional farming methods and changes in agriculture.

That would give the page information that a Census table cannot provide.

Nearby Villages

Bamyoli is part of the larger network of villages within Bhikiyasain tehsil. The official Census records place several settlements in the surrounding area, including villages such as Dalmari, Buganaurarh, Dadhuli, Ugaliya Lalchand, Ugaliya Aswal, Tulkaande and Ugaliya Bist. 

Once individual pages are published for nearby settlements, the Bamyoli page can help readers move naturally from one village to another and understand the local geography better.

A Small Village with a Strong Farming Connection

Bamyoli's available records give a fairly simple picture of the village.

The more personal side of the village would come from its residents the history of the settlement, stories of older generations, traditional food, festivals, local religious places, farming practices and the changes that have taken place as people have moved for education and employment.

Those details should be collected from local people or reliable local records. That will make the page genuinely about Bamyoli, rather than another generic article about a hill village in Uttarakhand.
