District Court Kaithal

    Originally, the lush and lavish richly green area of Kaithal was part of District Karnal which is traversed from north to south by the watershed between the Indian Ocean and the Bay of Bengal.  In the north of the district, in the Thanesar Tehsil and the Guhla sub-Tehsil of Kaithal, the country to the west of the Bangar is traversed  by a series of hill torrents, of which the most important are the Markanda, Umla, Saravati, Chautang and Rakshi. That, Kaithal became a Sub Division in Karnal District in the year 1896 and it became independent district in Haryana on 1st November, 1989.  As per Mythology, it is known to be the birth place of God Sri Hanuman Ji, hence its original name was Kapisthal, as the place of Kapi (Hanuman).
