History

The town has mythological significance. It is believed that it was from this place that milk was supplied to Guru Dronacharya and his pupils at Gurugram (Gurgaon). According to Buddhist literature, Dhankot is also known as Thullkottiha (थुलकोठिया) (or Dhool kot, in common language) and Lord Buddha is said to have visited this place.[2]

Until 1947 Dhankot was in the possession of Ranghar Muslim Chauhans (Dhundhoti). The majority of those ranghars settled in Sikandarabad in [Multan District of Pakistan] after migration. After their departure to Pakistan, the land was allotted to the arriving Hindu refugees from Pakistan and its name was changed from Dhoolkot to Dhankot.
