History
According to tradition, Kandiaro was founded during the reign of the Mughal emperor Jahangir, after a nearby town called Patoipur was hit by a flood. Kandiaro was then built on higher ground, to protect against flooding, and its name came from the many kandi trees growing on the site.[2]
Kandiaro was formally established as a municipality in February 1861. As of 1874, its population was 2,558. Most of its population was employed in agriculture, although there was also some trade in grain and cloth, and there were also local cloth and paper industries.[2]
