'''Kotla''' is a historic village in [[Nuh district]] of [[Haryana]], [[India]]. Located 7km south of [[Nuh (city)|Nuh city]] in the scenic [[Aravalli Hills]], Kotla was a stronghold of the [[Khanzadas of Mewat]] and seat of power of the Khanzada ruler [[Raja Nahar Khan|Bahadur Nahar Khan]]. Its historical importance came from its strategic position: in a narrow valley with only one pass, and protected on the east by the large [[Dahar lake]], when the lake was filled with water, the only way in was through a narrow strip of land between the lake and the hills.<ref name="Nuh website">{{cite web |title=Kotla, Nuh |url=https://nuh.gov.in/tourist-place/kotla/ |website=Nuh district website |publisher=Government of Haryana |access-date=24 January 2021}}</ref>

Kotla is listed in the [[Ain-i-Akbari]] as a [[pargana]] under the [[sarkar (country subdivision)|sarkar]] of [[Tijara]], producing a revenue of 1,552,196 [[dam (Indian coin)|dam]]s for the imperial treasury and supplying a force of 700 infantry and 30 cavalry. It appears with the note "Has a brick fort on a hill on which there is a reservoir 4 [[kos (unit)|kos]] in circumference."<ref name="Ain-i-Akbari">{{cite book |last1=Abu'l-Fazl ibn Mubarak |last2=Jarrett |first2=Henry Sullivan (translator) |title=The Ain-i-Akbari |date=1891 |publisher=Asiatic Society of Bengal |location=Calcutta |page=193 |url=https://archive.org/details/ainiakbarivolum00mubgoog |access-date=24 January 2021}}</ref>
