Singhaur Tara is a village in Sareni block of Rae Bareli district, Uttar Pradesh, India.[2] It is located on the bank of the Ganges,[3] 18 km from the tehsil headquarters at Lalganj.[4] Singhaur Tara is probably identical with the mahal called "Tara Singhaur" Ain-i-Akbari in the late 16th century.[3] This mahal was in the sarkar of Lucknow.[3] It was later merged into the pargana of Sareni under the Nawabs of Awadh in the 1700s.[3]
