History
The modern-day Nuh city lies within the historical Mewat region of India. During the Medieval era, Delhi Sultan Firuz Shah Tughlaq appointed Sonpar Pal, a Jadaun Rajput who converted to Islam and became Raja Nahar Khan, as the ruler of Mewat. Nahar Khan was from the historic Kotla village of Nuh, where he built the Kotla fort. He became the patriarch of the Khanzada Rajputs, a distinct ethnic group compared to the native Meos.
The reign of Nahar Khan led to a major change took place in the socio-political life of the region. In order to strengthen the economic base of their chiefdom, the Khanzadas put considerable pressure on the ethnic Meos and other tribal communities in the Kala Pahad region to give up their plundering activities and take up cultivation. In this process, the conversion of forest land into agricultural land appears to have been their first major initiative. By a large-scale deforestation drive, more and more areas were brought under cultivation by the Khanzadas
