| |
| | |
| The region around Sultanpur was called [[Dhundhoti]]. Sultanpur was the center of salt production for use in Delhi and the [[United Provinces of British India]] till the late 19th century exporting annually 250000 quintals (680000 maunds) over the [[Rajputana-Malwa Railway]]. The [[Farrukhnagar railway station]] and [[metre-gauge railway]] train service was started on 14 February 1873, and there were a couple of [[Siding (rail)|railway siding]]s at Sultanpur for loading salt into the train wagons.<ref name=sangat1>{{cite web | title = Miscellaneous Revenue|page =349 |work= [[Imperial Gazetteer of India]], Volume 20 | url = https://dsal.uchicago.edu/reference/gazetteer/pager.html?objectid=DS405.1.I34_V20_355.gif | access-date = 2015-10-04 }}</ref> Sultanpur had an ancient mosque dating back to the period of Sultan of Delhi, [[Ghiyas ud din Balban]] (1200–1287 CE).

| Salt was produced by extracting [[brine]] from about 40 [[saline water]] [[Water well|well]]s using bullocks and drying in open plots. Since salt was one of the major sources of Government revenue, the office of the salt superintendent at Sultanpur supervised the levy of ₹2 tax per maund. With the levy of the heavy salt tax and acquisition of the [[Sambhar, Rajasthan|Sambhar Chawal]] salt works in [[Rajputana]] by the British Indian Government the Sultanpur Salt became uneconomical and by 1903-04 the salt industry was struggling for survival with salt export having fallen to 65000 [[maund]]s leading to severe setback to the economy of the Sultanpur area. Finally, in 1923 the British shut down the office of the salt superintendent, had all the mounds of salt thrown back into the wells and shut down the salt industry leading to considerable economic misery to the people.<ref>{{cite web |title=Misc Revenue |url=https://dsal.uchicago.edu/reference/gazetteer/pager.html?objectid=DS405.1.I34_V20_355.gif&volume=20 |year=1909 |publisher=[[The Imperial Gazetteer of India]]|page=349, v. 20}}</ref>
