Bhatapara is a city and a nagar palika (municipality) in the Baloda Bazar-Bhatapara district of the state of Chhattisgarh, India.

==History== During the British rule from 1854 to 1864, Baloda Bazar and Bhatapara were part of the Raipur district. Later, these areas were included in the Bilaspur district in 1864. Bhatapara later became its own district in 1903 after local British Officers relocated their telegraph office there from Simga. Baloda Bazaar would then become a Gram Panchayat in 1949, following the Local Government Act implemented by the newly independent Indian Government.
