Etymology

[edit]

According to legend, Sonipat was earlier known as Sonprastha, which later on became Swarnprastha (lit. 'Golden City').[10][11] Later, the name Swarnprastha changed into Swarnpath, and then to its current form, Sonipat.[12]

History

[edit]

Reference to the city comes in the epic Mahabharata as Svarnaprastha. It was one of the five villages demanded by Pandavas as the price of peace from Duryodhan in lieu of the kingdom Hastinapur. The other four villages were Panduprastha (Panipat), Vyaghraprastha (Baghpat), Tilaprastha (Tilpat) and Indraprastha (Delhi).[13]

Sonipat is listed in the Ain-i-Akbari as a pargana under Delhi sarkar, producing a revenue of 7,727,323 dams for the imperial treasury and supplying a force of 1000 infantry and 70 cavalry. It had a brick fort at the time, which was also mentioned.[14]

Principalities of Sonipat

There were few principalities and zamindaris of Jat Chaudharys of different clans. 1. Kharkhoda- It was established by Dahiya Jats who were rulers in Nagaur, Rajasthan. They migrated to Bagar tract and then to Deswal tract- Kharkhoda (Sonipat). They set up their independent principality and there are over 52 villages in Sonipat of Dahiya Chaudharys.[15][16]

2. Ahulana (Gohana)- After leaving Hansi stronghold, Malik Jat Chaudharys came and founded Gohana region and made Ahulana, their capital. It was founded by Raja Huleram Malik who from the lineage of Raja Jaitra Singh (Jatwan Malik). Ahulana principality had the rights of tax collection during the Mughal period. They also participated in the revolt of 1857.[17]


Sonipat came under Islamic rule after the Second Battle of Tarain in 1193. The Sikhs under Banda Singh Bahadur fought the Battle of Sonipat against the Mughals in 1709. Khanda, Sonipat village witnessed the Battle of Sonipat and won the battle against Mughals under the military leadership of Banda Singh Bahadur[18]

Bahalgarh estate

[edit]

Sheo Nath singh, a rebel leader of his own tribe of Gaur Brahmins from Bahalgarh village in sonipat, received forty-two villages and title of Raja from Shah Alam II of Mughal empire on conditions that he stopped his rebellious activities and fought against the alien tribes like Afghans and Persians for the protection of sonipat. His son Kanwar pirthi singh lost whole of his Estate, against the mighty British empire because of his independent attitude. His son Pandit Murari Lal received mauza Bahalgarh his ancestral village for his help in the mutiny of 1857, by protecting the women's and children's from the rebels. [19]

After taking blessings from Guru Gobind Singh, Baba Banda Singh Bahadur first camped at Khanda, Sonipat and assembled a fighting force with Dahiya Jats.

Geography and topography

[edit]

Sonipat is located at 28°59′N 77°01′E / 28.98°N 77.02°E / 28.98; 77.02.[22]

The district headquarter is situated in Sonipat. Other smaller towns are Gohana, Ganaur, Mundlana, Kharkhoda and Rai. The total area of Sonipat district is 2,260 km2 and its population is 10,64,000. Sonipat is bordered by the states of Delhi and Uttar Pradesh as well as the districts of Rohtak, Jind and Panipat. The River Yamuna runs along the eastern boundary of the district

District Sonepat comprises four sub-divisions, namely Ganaur, Sonepat, Kharkhoda and Gohana and eight blocks (Ganaur, Sonipat, Rai, Kharkhoda, Gohana, Kathura, Murthal  and Mundlana) has been carved out of Rohtak and made a full-fledged district on 22 December 1972. Sonepat is the largest tehsil followed by Gohana. It has one Municipal Corporation Sonipat and three municipal committees Ganaur, Gohana and Kharkhoda.

the Haryana Main water system in the district consists of the River Yamuna and the irrigation canals flowing out of it. There is no perennial river in the district. The underground water resources differ from area to area. The depth of the water table is the lowest in the Khader area along the Yamuna, where it is below 10 ft. It increases to 30 to 40 ft. in some of the western and south eastern part of the district. The ground water in some areas is saline and brackish. The ground water conditions indicate that the district faces the problem of occurrence of brackish water and water logging in eastern parts of the district.

Broadly speaking, the district is a continuous part of the Haryana-Punjab plain, but the area is not leveled in some parts. Over most of the district, the soil is fine loam of rich color. However, some areas have sandy soil and others are composed of Kallar. The plain has a gradual slope to the south and east. The district may be roughly divided into three regions:

  1. The Khadar Along the River Yamuna is a narrow flood plain, three to six kilometres wide, and is formed by the river along its course. The Khader plain is 20 to 30 feet lower, adjoining upland plain. It is composed of fine clay loam left by the receding floods of the Yamuna. Currently, rice and sugar cane cultivation is undertaken by the farmers in the Khadar area. Recently, the farmers have started planting Banana, Pappaya and other fruits trees.
  2. The Upland Plain It consists of Sonepat tehsil lying to the west of the Khadar, and is the most extensive of the three regions: The Upland Plain is covered with old alluvium, which if properly irrigated, is highly productive. Extensive Farming of crops, oil seeds, horticultural plants, vegetables and flowers, is undertaken in this region. The ridges in Gohana tehsil represent the northern most extension of the Aravallis.
  3. The Sandy Region A very smaller part of the district is covered with soil consisting of sand or sandy loam. Parts of this region has high PH value leading to kallor land.

Soil Profile

[edit]

District Sonepat, comprising Sonepat, Gohana and Ganaur sub divisions, has 343 villages and covers an area of 2,13,080 hectares. The irrigated area (both with the help of canal irrigation as well as through tubewells) is 2,86,504 acres and the un-irrigated rainfed area is 43,979 acres. Sonepat is an important saltpetre producing area. The saltpeter appears as efflorescence on the surface during the summer season, specially in the village of Sonepat sub-division.

Water logging is a serious problem effecting the productivity of land. The water logged area, which the water table is between 0 and 5 ft, faces a serious problem. Where the water table is between 5 and 10 ft., the problem of water logging is imminent. There has been an alarming rise in the water table during the last two decades, Specially in the areas adjoining the canals. This has led to appearance of Thur on the surface of soil, followed by sem in several parts of the district, specially the areas adjoining the Yamuna and minor canals running through the district.

The soil in Sonepat is rich and quite suitable for all types of agricultural crops as well as forest cover.

The types of soil may be classified according to textures as :

  1. Sandy (Raitali)
  2. Sandy loam (Bhuri)
  3. Loam (Rausli)
  4. Clay loam (Karti)
  5. Clay (Dakar)
