Ballabgarh, officially Balramgarh,[1] is a large town, nearby Faridabad city and a tehsil (subdistrict) in Faridabad district of Haryana, India, and is part of the Delhi National Capital Region[2] or Delhi NCR.
The town was founded by Raja Balram Singh, in 1739, who also built the Nahar Singh Mahal palace in the same year.[3] Raja Nahar Singh (1823–1858) was the last king of the princely state. He was executed for taking part in the 1857 war of independence in 1858.[3] The town of Ballabhgarh is only 17 miles (27 km) from Delhi, and today lies on the National Highway 19, a major portion of historical Grand Trunk Road.[3] It is connected to Faridabad and south-east Delhi by the Delhi Metro.[4] Ballabhgarh is the fourth city in Haryana to get metro connectivity after Gurgaon, Faridabad and Bahadurgarh.[5]
