'''Kaul''' is a [[panchayat village]]<ref>2011 Village Panchayat Code = 26354, {{Cite web|title=Reports of National Panchayat Directory: Village Panchayat Names of Pundri, Kaithal, Haryana|publisher=Ministry of Panchayati Raj, Government of India|url=http://panchayatdirectory.gov.in/adminreps/viewpansumSQL.asp?selstate=508&parenttype=B&ptype=V|access-date=25 April 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130425073303/http://panchayatdirectory.gov.in/adminreps/viewpansumSQL.asp?selstate=508&parenttype=B&ptype=V|archive-date=25 April 2013|url-status=dead}}</ref> in the Pundri tehsil of [[Kaithal district]] of [[Haryana]], India. Earlier it formed part of the [[Kurukshetra]] and [[Karnal]] districts. Kaul is 38 km by road northwest of the city of [[Karnal]], 32 km by road southwest of the town of [[Kurukshetra]] and 5 km by road southeast of the village of [[Dhand]], where the nearest railway station is located.

The population of Kaul village was 12,826 in 2011, which was almost five times the average size for villages in the district. Kaul is relatively well-developed and often thought of as a town. The infrastructure is well-developed, including a nearby 220 kv power station.

An old fort survives in a now-uninhabited part of the village and ascetics and saints stay there. Folklore has it that the wheel of [[Karna]]'s chariot got stuck at that spot during his final fight with [[Arjuna]] in [[Mahabharat]].<ref>''Mahabali Karna's chariot is known to have got stuck and rendered immobile in the marshy area presently covered by the Kaul village (kasba)'', Page 80, Folkloristics of Mahābhārata, by Vijneshu Mohan, Publisher B.R. Pub. Corp., 2003 {{ISBN|81-7646-331-0}}, {{ISBN|978-81-7646-331-7}}</ref> Historically, Kaul was a major center of learning. A famous [[Sanskrit]] Mahavidyalaya joined the ''[[ashram]]'' of [[Kapil]] Muni, one of the most learned and revered Hindu sages of ancient India. Kapil Muni was mentioned by [[Krishna]] during the sermon of [[Gita]] to Arjuna in Mahabharat. The village has a ''Surya Kund'' (a sacred tank dedicated to the Sun God).<ref>''In Kurukshetra district, we find so many important places attached with the Sun God. Moreover in this area, we have many Surya-Kundas (tanks dedicated to Surya) e.g., at Habri, Kaul....'', Page 81, Proceedings, Volume 6 by Punjabi University. Dept. of Punjab Historical Studies, Publisher Punjabi University, 1981, Original from the University of Virginia, Digitized 14 May 2009</ref>
