About

So far not a single PGW site has come to light in the district, perhaps suggesting the north-eastward migrations of the Aryans from the banks of the Saraswati and the Drisadvati possibly happened due to the drying up of their courses. Most of the sites explored in Mahendregath belong to the late-medieval period. The district, it may further be pointed out, might have possibly remained outside the main stream of Aryan culture and hence has not been specifically mentioned in the traditional literature as an independent territorial unit. However, it has been suggested that some of the present streams of the district may be identified with those mentioned in early Vedic literature.

Mahendragarh is emerging as the new education hub of Haryana with several high standard schools, like Yaduvanshi Shiksha Niketan and colleges, including engineering colleges and a Center University having come up here. It is also having top class health facilites.
