Kuchesar is The Place in Bulandshahr district,State of Uttar Pradesh, at a distance of 80 km from Delhi, off the NH 24. It was the seat of Zamindari, or small princely estate, during British Raj. The Jat rulers of Kuchesar, who hailed from Mandoti in Haryana, built their mud-fort sometime in the mid-18th century. The mud-fort of Kuchesar tells of the chequered history of the Jats who vied with the Sikhs, Marathas, Rohillas & Rajputs, as well as with French adventurers and the British East India Company, to fill the vacuum created by the decline of the Mughal empire. Part of the Kuchesar Fort is now a heritage hotel, after its restoration by Neemrana Hotels. ==Clan history== The ruling family of Kuchesar belonged to the Dalal clan of the Jat caste. Mr. Crook in his book ''“The Tribes and Castes of the north western provinces and Avadh”'' writes about the origin of the Dalal clan of Jats. He recounts that in the village of Sillauti, located in the Rohtak district of Haryana, there lived in a long-bygone era a man by name Dhanna Rao Rathore, who belonged to the Rajput caste. He married a woman of the Princess Badgujar Jat caste. They had three sons, by name Deswal, Dille and Maan. The descendants of the three brothers formed three major lineages (''gotra''s) and came to be known as Deswal, Dalal and Maan Gotras respectively. Part of the Kuchesar Fort is now two heritage hotels, one is Mud Fort Kuchesar and Rao Raj Vilas. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kuchesar」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
