[[Category:Churches]]
In 1930 the Anglican Church in India separated from the Church of England and became the autonomous Church of India, Burma and Ceylon, still within the worldwide fellowship of the Anglican Communion. In 1947, Protestant churches of [[Churches in South India ]] united to form the new Church of South India. Protestant churches in North India, and Pakistan followed in 1970. However there are breakaway churches as this [http://www.religiousintelligence.com/news/?NewsID=4849 link] shows.
The following is a list of all the bishops and dioceses of the [[Church of North India]], correct as at January 1995. The CNI was formed out of most of the Protestant denominations of Christian churches, after Independence from Britain. If you are trying to find the location of a specific church in North India, you could write to the diocese and they will give you the postal address and the pastor's name. If you're not sure which diocese to write to, you could email me and I may be able to offer a suggestion. Note that in many cases, the original pre-Independence records are kept in the Diocesan office itself. If you wish to view original old records while in India, then the Diocesan Office itself is your most likely source.
