==History==
It is said that Ambala District was founded by Amba Rajput during the 14th century AD. Another version is that the name is a corruption of ''Amba Wala'' meaning ''the mango-village'', from mango groves which existed in its immediate neighborhood. Still, another version is that the District has taken its name after goddess "Bhawani Amba" whose Temple still exists in Ambala city.
