Beauty is a thing of joy forvever. This tiny place on the earth is blessed with beauty and spledour of nature. On one side is the Beas river and on other side are the Shiwalik hills. Surrounded by a river and hills Talwara is a place space once having dense forests. Those forests are still visible in its two forest ranges. Talwara is divided roughly into two parts, one is the township area, created and maintained by Bhakra Beas Management Board; other is private area comprising Subhash Nagar, Indra Colony, Sandpur Mohalla etc and main bazaar. The township area is inhabited with people from various parts of Indian States. They are employees of BBMB, Shah Nehar, Mukerian Hydle Project and various other govt. departments viz education, health, forest, local bodies etc.
