Rohnat

Nearby villages include Kanwari, Muzadpur and Nalwa. The village of Balali, the home village of the Phogat sisters is also close. The village, which lies in the basin of the Saraswati River and the Yamuna, is irrigated by the Sunder distributory of the Western Yamuna Canal.

Due to its participation in the Indian Rebellion of 1857, the village was nicknamed by the British Raj as the village of rebels. All the land of zamindars was taken away and freedom fighters wre crushed under the road roller.[2]

General Courtland attacked the village for their prolific role in the rebellion and the villagers fought back bravely. Courtland ordered the destruction of the village by bombarding it with cannon shells. Birhad Bairagi (बिरहड़ बैरागी) was tied to the mouth of a canon and blasted. Among the villagers who were caught, some were hanged by the still-extant banyan tree [dying and in the need of revival] on the banks of "Dhab Johad" (ढ़ाब जोहड़) wetland, others were crushed in Hansi town under the road roller on the "Lal Sadak" (लाल सड़क, literally "Red Road" which denotes the "Blood Road"). Naunda Jat (नौंदा जाट) and Rupa Khati (रुपा खाती) were among the martyrs. Surviving villagers refused to apologise, as required by the British colonials, for their part in the 1857 war of independence. Consequently, the land of the freedom fighters was confiscated and auctioned off as a punishment. Their land rights have not been restored to them to this day. Due to this, since the Independence of India, villagers neither celebrated the Independence Day nor unfurled the national flag as the freedom for them had not yet arrived. On Martyrs Day on 23 March 2018, on the death anniversary of the Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev Thapar and Shivaram Rajguru, Chief Minister Manoharlal for the first time got an elder of the village to unfurl the flag in the village in his presence.[1]

As of the 2011 Census of India, the village had 711 households with a population of 3,785, of which 1,970 were male and 1,815 female.[3] All residents are Hindus.

The major temple is Jakhli dham. Hindu festivals are celebrated every year. Teej is a popular Haryanvi festival observed with the music of Haryana.

The village lies on the Golden Trinagle of West Haryana tourism i.e. the Hisar (Firoz Shah Palace Complex, Agroha Mound, Rakhi Garhi) - Hansi (Asigarh Fort) - Tosham (Tosham fort & rock inscription and Tosham Hill range) tourism circuit.

The BJP Government is developing the Rohnat Ahutatma Smarak (martyr's memorial) under the Rohnat Freedom Trust on 4 acres of land to commemorate the valour and sacrifice during the revolt of 1857.[2] The installation of the tallest Indian flag is also planned, as well as the renovation on well martyrs and the revival of the dying tree on which martyrs were hanged. The Indian flag was hoisted in this village for the first time on 26 January 2018 by the Chief Minister of Haryana Manoharlal Khattar as earlier villagers had decided to delay hosting it until their land taken during British Raj is restored to them.
