Daranagar




Daranagar is located near Bijnor in Uttar Pradesh. During the battle of Kurukshetra between Pandavas and Kauravas, Vidura, the youngest brother of Dhritarashtra and the prime minister of Hastinapur, was asked by both the sides to protect their women and children. Vidur established a camp to accommodate all the women and children together. This place came to be known as Daranagar.
