THE FORT RAMGARH

Ramgarh was one of the sovereign (“Khud-
Mukhtyar”) Cis-Sutlej states of The Punjab ruled by
Chandel Rajputs, whose lineage goes back to
Ramayana and Mahabharata days. Chandel Rajputs
had their seat of power in Bundelkhand (Madhya
Pradesh) and they ruled over the entire Central
India in the medieval period before the advent of
Prithviraj Chauhan. World-famous Khajuraho
temples were built by them. Well-known warriors
Aalah-Udal, whose exploits are still remembered
through folk songs, were Chandels.
Nearly 1,300 years ago, the Ramgarh family’s
ancestors migrated from there to Punjab and
established the state of Kot Kahloor. The capital was
later shifted to Bilaspur. One branch of the family of
the Raja of Bilaspur came to Ramgarh nearly 360
years ago and laid the foundation of Ramgarh.
In 1760s when anarchy prevailed in the entire
region Ramgarh was one of the only three States
which survived unscathed, the other two being
Raipur and Kotaha.
