Gadarwara is a city and municipality since 1867 in Narsinghpur district in the state of Madhya Pradesh, India. Gadarwara's Toor Dal brand has a unique identity in the country.
== History == The city of Gadarwara and its district Gadariya-kheda (now Narsinghpur) derive their names from the Gadariya caste, who are considered to be among the earliest settlers in the Narmada (Nerbudda) Valley. The Gadariya caste is also credited with constructing one of the oldest temples in India, the Gadarmal Temple, located in Vidisha, Madhya Pradesh, which dates back to the 7th century AD (approximately 1,400 years ago).
