History

Bahadurgarh was founded by either the Rathee Jats, or Mughal Emperor Alamgir II who ruled from 1754 to 1759. He gave the town in jagir to Bahadur Khan and Tej Khan, Baloch rulers of Farrukhnagar in 1754, who changed its name from Sharafabad to Bahadurgarh. One of their ruler, Bahadur Khan, constructed a fort in 1793 CE and named it Bahadurgarh Fort. Baloch Nawabs were defeated by Maratha forces and Bahadurgarh came into the hands of Sindhia in 1793. After Sindhia's defeat in 1803 at the hands of the British raj, Lord Lake transferred control of the town's government to the brother of the Nawab of Jhajjar in the aftermath of Treaty of Surji-Anjangaon. Bahadurgarh Fort is also called Singh Dwar or Gateway of Haryana.

During 1995–1998, a series of rapes and murders of young girls by the Bahadurgarh baby killer led to several dharnas and bandhs by the local population. The police prosecuted three men as the "baby killer", before the real culprit was caught in November 1998.
