Naraina Village is a village in New Delhi, India.[1][2] It is a Tanwar/Tomar Rajput village.[3]
History
Naraina has derived its name from Raja Narain Pal Singh Tanwar, a Tomar Rajput ruler associated with the Tomara dynasty of Delhi[4][5][6].According to traditional Tomar genealogies, Raja Narain Pal Singh Tanwar is described as the 6th descendant of Anangpal Tomar[7]. The Tomara dynasty, also referred to as Tomar or Tanwar, ruled parts of Delhi and present-day Haryana during the early medieval period.Historians associate the foundation of nearby Mahipalpur with Raja Mahipal Singh Tanwar, descendant of Raja Anagpal Singh Tomar, and belonging to the same Tanwar Rajput lineage.[8][9] It is a Tanwar/Tomar Rajput village.[10][11].[12]
The Sultan Ghari monument was built in around 10th century by the Pratihara dynasty.[13][14] Naraina has an ancient Hauz and Mahal,[15] two historical monuments which reveal the habitation of this area during the seven capitals that existed in Delhi in historic times.

Similarly, another inscription recovered from Palam village Baoli refers to 'Delhi' as lying in 'Haryanak', present-day Haryana. The Tomar kings built their capital at Suraj Kund, an area protected by hills. An early landmark of Delhi is a pre tenth century temple fort and lake complex in and around present day Suraj kund. Sultan Garhi Suraj kund with its sun temple, the ruins of a dam and some fortifications in ruins all point to creations by Suraj Pal and Anang Pal of the Tomar Dynasty.” (26 November 2024).
