History
Jind was a part of the Indus Valley Civilisation. The site of Rakhigarhi, where one of the highest number of settlements happened during Indus valley, is 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) away from Jind city. It later became part of Kuru kingdom.
Jind is listed in the Ain-i-Akbari as a pargana under the sarkar of Hisar, producing a revenue of 5,401,749 dams for the imperial treasury and supplying a force of 4000 infantry and 500 cavalry. Under its entry, the author Abu'l-Fazl ibn Mubarak mentioned the Hindu temple in the nearby village of Pandu Pindara.
In 1775, Maharaja Gajpat Singh Sidhu built the Jind Fort, which later came under Maharani Jind Kaur, queen of Naresh Swarup Singh Sidhu - the Jat ruler of Jind State.
