Agroha is located 190 kilometers away from Delhi, on National Highway No. 10 (Maharaja Agrasen Raj Marg), near Hisar-Sirsa Road. While coming from Delhi, one reaches Agroha passing through Bahadurgarh, Sopala, Rohtak, Hansi, and Hisar.
Agroha was a vast, magnificent, and prosperous city of its time. Its prosperity and fame extended far and wide. When the bards sang the praises of Agroha, the listeners could feel the flow of heroic spirit in their veins. Its fertile land and prosperity attracted foreigners continually. As a result, Greek, Shakas, Huns, Kushanas, and Iranians invaded this land repeatedly.
The Ganarajya of Agroha, due to its valor, always stood firm against foreign invasions and remained united in the defense of its city. However, frequent wars led to a massive loss of population and weakened its power. People started leaving the city, and eventually, the continuous attacks by Muhammad Ghori forced the inhabitants to abandon their homeland permanently. The people of Agroha, carrying their lives and belongings, left Agroha and moved ahead, settling in surrounding regions such as Rajasthan, Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, etc. wherever their destiny led them. Eventually, they spread gradually across all parts of the country. As the residents of Maharaja Agrasen's capital Agroha, everyone began to identify themselves as Agarwal.

Agroha was built and destroyed numerous times. Now, it was a deserted ruin, trapped in the form of a long-standing mound. It cried out in agony, O my descendants! You have played a significant role in the construction and development of the country. Wherever you have gone, there, you have received the blessings of Goddess Lakshmi. You have built temples for worship, constructed Dharamshala for the comfort of travelers, opened schools and colleges for the spread of education, and established hospitals and pharmacies for the healthcare of the people. But now, look towards me as well. Undertake my revival and reconstruction.
Swami Brahmanand was the first to hear this plea of Agroha. For the revival of Agroha, Swami Brahmanand traveled to various places, filled with emotions for Agarwal. Inspired by him, in the year 1915, Seth Bholaram Dalmia Saovaram established a cowshed in Agroha, and in 1939, Seth Ramjidas Vajoria of Kolkata built a dharamshala and temple here. Subsequently, the Halwasiya Trust of Kolkata constructed a well and water fountain near the cowshed. Due to the efforts of Shri Kalicharan Keshan, the Bajoria family contributed one and a half lakh rupees for the renovation of this Dharamshala in 1992.
In 1939, Seth Ramjidas Vajoria constructed the Dharamshala and temple.
In 1965, Master Lakshminarayan Agarwal and his colleagues purchased land in Agroha through Maharaja Agrasen Engineering and Technical College Society.
In March 1973, Shri Rameshwardas Gupta initiated the publication of the monthly magazine Mangal-Milan. With a focus on the principles of Mangal-Milan, in November 1974, a nationwide conference of publishers, editors, writers, and journalists of Agarwal newspapers from across the country was planned in Delhi. The objective of this conference was to discuss the role of newspapers in the current social situation. Preparations for this journalist conference began, and invitations were sent to publishers, editors, and journalists of Agarwal newspapers across the country. Most of them agreed to participate.
The crown jewel of the Agrawal clan, Maharaja Agrasen, was born approximately five thousand years ago in Pratap Nagar. His father's name was Raja Ballabh, and his grandfather was Raja Mahidhar. After Agrasen's birth, astrologers predicted that this newborn would grow up to earn great fame and possess extraordinary intelligence. As Agrasen gradually matured, he started learning the art of warfare and weaponry along with statecraft.
