Mohan is a town and a nagar panchayat in Unnao district in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh. == History == Some local residentssay that Mohan is derived from ''Moh'' meaning devotional love in Hindi and ''han'' meaning loss. A story claims that when Rama was going to ''Vanvas'' (self imposed exile) for fourteen years, Mohan is the place where he separated from his wife Sita thinking that he may suffer ''han'' in ''Moh'' due to the worldly love hence continued forward with his journey. Other local residents say the word Mohan was given by the first inhabitants of this place. They migrated from a small city Mahan in the Kerman province of Iran thereby naming the place after their homeland . During the Mughal and British empires, Mohan flourished as a town known for its literate people. During the days of the Nawabs of Awadh, many residents found employment in the court of the Nawab and earned large fortunes. The town was well known for its Unani Hakims, mimics and actors. Locals affectionately used to call it as ''Mohan Khitta-e Unan'' meaning Mohan as a part of Greece, due to a number of well known ''Hakims'' (doctors of Unani medicine). Hasrat Mohani, a well known Urdu poet and freedom fighter of Indian independence from British rule, and Iffat Mohani, a well known Urdu novel writer, trace their origins from Mohan. Currently Mohan has several elementary schools and an intermediate school that goes up to grade 12. It is approximately 25 kilometres from city of Lucknow, the capital of Uttar Pradesh. 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「Mohan, Uttar Pradesh」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
