Nawalgarh, Himachal Pradesh

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nawalgarh (also known as Hindur or Nalagarh) is a town in Himachal Pradesh, India.

In the early twentieth century, Nawalgarh was one of the Simla hill states, under the government of the Punjab. The country was overrun by the Gurkhas for some years before 1815, when they were driven out by the British, and the raja was confirmed in possession of the territory. Grain and opium have, in the past, been main agricultural products.
