History
In Book II of the Ain-i-Akbari, Abohar (Persian: ابوهر, transliterated as Abuhar) appears as a pargana under the Sarkar of Sirhind, within the Subah of Delhi. The Sarkar of Sirhind was an important administrative and military division of the Delhi Subah, functioning as a strategic gateway to the empire's northwestern frontiers. Abohar's classification as a pargana reflects its established role as a fiscal jurisdiction, with defined territorial limits, inhabited settlements, and assessed land (zamin) revenues.
