Ashoka Pillar, Kotla - a photo on Flickriver

Ashoka Pillar, Kotla

            The building in front was part of private apartments of the king and the pillar is Asoka's pillar (very few are aware that we have 2 Asoka' pillar in Delhi). The pillar was originally erected by Asoka near Ambala in 250 B.C. Firoz shah found it when hunting. When u stand beside the pillar look at the Jamuna. It is quite a long way off. In firoz Shah's time it ran close to the palace wall, but since it has receded.
