In 1765, the Northern Circars were granted to the English by an imperial firman. Soon after this, Cotsford was sent to Ganjam by the board of Revenue at Madras. At first, he arrived at Vizagapatam (Visakhapatnam) in 1767 where he noticed that the northern parts of the district were in a disturbed condition, and that Jagannatha Narayanadeva, possessed great influence over the local zamindars.

He was,

therefore, to be brought to submission. He further realized that Narayanadeva had already intercepted all important communica¬tions between Bengal and Madras. So he resolved to subdue the raja before taking any major action in the district of Ganjam. Modern Ganjam Ganjam District came into existence on 1st April 1936. The Ganjam area was a part of ancient Kalinga which was occupied by Ashok in 261 B.C. The period of 1757 was ruled by the French Commander Bussy. In 1759, the French ruler was defeated by English and the District was annexed by them. The office of the District Collector was established in 1794. The District got separated from the Madras Presidency and formed the part of the newly created State of Odisha province with effect from 1.4.1936. 3.2.4
