Bilaspur is a census town and block headquarter in Yamunanagar District in the state of Haryana, India.[1] It takes its name from the corrupted form of "Vyas Puri", as it was the ashram of Ved Vyasa rishi where he wrote the Mahabharta on the banks of Sarasvati river near Adi Badri where Sarasvati river leaves Himalayas and enters the plains.[2] On Jagadhari road lies another popular religious site of Kapal Mochan.
