Pilkhuwa

Pilkhuwa is a town in India known for its production of the textile and handloom industry. It is also a municipal board in the Hapur district of Uttar Pradesh. It was founded as the village but now it is grown to the size of the town.

There is a very interesting story behind the name of Pilkhuwa. During the 12th century, a Rajput king Raja Anangpal Singh Tomar who was ruling Delhi at that time king had an elephant named ‘Pli’ that disappeared from Delhi state.

He sends his son to find it when the search operation was stopped at the village, people gathered and said ‘Pil-khuwa’ that stated ‘Pil is lost’. It was in 1235 that the village of pilkhuwa was established by the Tomar kings.

After Mughal defeated Tomar kings the Rajput population affected and many people converted themselves to Islam. Till 1976, Pilkhuwa was into the Meerut district.
