Aishwarya Chand Katoch is the 489th descendant of the great Katoch Rajput King Porus of Punjab. He was crowned last year in the oldest fort of Kangra. He is the Jagirdar of Kangra-Lambagraon.
Coronation
The coronation took place after 400 years in the Kangra Fort which is older than the Mahabharata period. On the occasion of the coronation, a large number of people had come from Alexander’s country (Greece) as well. Many kings and Maharajas of India had come on this joyous occasion and Katoch, Dadwal, Jaswal and Chib Rajputs all had arrived on this joyous occasion.
Fort of Katoch Dynasty
The ancestors of the Katoch dynasty built this Kangra fort thousands of years before the Mahabharata period. There are many wells in this fort which are still full of treasure. Akbar attacked this fort 52 times and tried to loot and steal its treasure many times but Akbar could not loot the treasure of Katoch fort even once. The Katoch Rajputs defeated Akbar in the war 52 times. After being humiliated so much, leave alone attacking, Akbar never even thought about the fort of Katoch Rajputs.
