UJJAIN MISSION REGION

Ujjain Mission Region is spread out in three civil districts, Ujjain, Shajapur and Rajgarh, which constitute the diocese of Ujjain and two Tehsils, Bhanpura and Gharot, in the district of Mandsaur coming under the diocese of Jhabua in Madhya Pradesh. The diocese of Ujjain was erected an Exarchate by Pope Paul VI by the Apostolic Decree ‘Apostolicum Munus’ on July 29, 1968. It was entrusted with MST for mission work. Very Rev. Fr John Perumattam, the first Director General of MST was appointed its first Apostolic Exarch. On 26th February 1977 Pope Paul VI by the Apostolic Constitution ‘Quo Divino Consilio’ raised the Exarchate to the status of a diocese and Mar John Perumattam was installed its first bishop. In conformity with the Canon 210.1 of CCEO Mar John Perumattam retired from the office after serving the diocese commendably for thirty years and Rev. Fr Sebastian Vadakel MST was nominated bishop of Ujjain on June 5, 1998. He was ordained and installed the second bishop of Ujjain on September 8, 1998. At the request of Rt Rev. Dr George M. Anathil, the bishop of Indore, MST took up mission work in two Tehsils, Bhanpura and Gharot on February 1, 2000 after making an agreement with the Bishop. Work was formally launched there on February 6, 2000 when Rev. Fr Scaria Thamarakatt began to stay and work at Shamgarh in the district of Mandsaur lying close to the diocese of Ujjain. With the bifurcation of the diocese in 2002 this mission area came under the new diocese of Jhabua.
