Gonda district is a district of the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh. The headquarters of this district is Gonda. Being in the flow zone of Saru and Ghaghra river, this district is one of the most fertile districts of Uttar Pradesh.
History:
This district has made its special identity in a long time flow of history. In ancient times, most of Shravasti and Kosal Mahajanapada were spread on its present terrain. At Mahatma Gautam Buddha, he got a new identity. It was so progressive and prosperous in that period that Mahatma Buddha had spent 21 years here in the migration. Gonda district is situated on one end of the famous northwest. In ancient India, it used to work as a forwarding site for the things coming from the areas of Himalaya. The Archaeological Survey of India has highlighted the ancientity of this district in its various excavations. Ancient Shravasti is identified with the Saheit Mahesh situated on the border of Gonda and Bahraich district. In Jain texts, Shravasti has been described as the birthplace of his third Tirthankar Sobhavnath and eighth Tirthankara Chandraprabhanath. According to the Vayu Purana and the Uttarkanda of the Ramayana, Shravasti was the capital of Northern Kosala whereas the capital of the Southern Kosala was Saket. In fact, the history of Shravasti is a history of Gonda in its long history. In his classical treatise Harshcharit, Raj poet of Harish Vardhan (606-47), mentioned a king named Shrut Verma who ruled on Shravasti. Shravasti is also described in the Dasamakumarit of the pen. Shravasti is also credited with the fact that from here here there is evidence of the idol of Bodhisattva in the early Kushan period. It seems that after this Kushan period this important city started to fall. Historians such as Ram Sharan Sharma have seen it associated with the rise of the cities and the rise of feudalism during the Gupta period.
In spite of this, Bihar's Jivanwan remained in existence for a long time, around the eighth and ninth centuries. In the medieval India Gonda was successful in maintaining an important place. In 1033, King Suheldev had fought with Sayyid Masood Ghazi. It is also an interesting fact of history that both the cities-Gonda and Bahraich are conserved all over the country. Another battle was with the nephew of Masood, Hattila Pir, along with Ashoknath Mahadev Temple, which was beaten to death. Ashoknath Mahadev Temple was built by Raja Suheldev. Which was later made of a hutila pir dome.
