OverView of Sonthal
History of Sonthal Sonthal village is presently situated in Panchayat Nahol, Tehsil Theog, District Shimla. Himachal India. It was in Dharech panchayat before 2014. It was part of Ratesh Panchayat before 1971 situated in District Mahasu (26 princely states -present Shimla, Solan) HP a Union territory of India. It was in Pargana Dharech, Thakurai Kot in Keonthal state before 1948. The present day Sonthal was inhabited by a migrant Brahman from nearby village called Sanal (Sanlu) under Ratesh Pargana (territory), around 1600 AD. Sanlu was the worshiper (Pujari) of Goddess in temple at Sanal. The deity are considered as ruler of the hill state, due to deep faith of people in them. So even ruler used this faith to rule and hence there was a Royal deity of state (Kulja - kuldevi). Ratesh state with the capital at Kot was established before 11th century. Although there is no written evidence available at Kot, but as per history of Sirmour state, its ruler Suraj Parkash captured the Kot in Ratesh and annexed it from Keonthal state in 1158 AD, and made it the capital of Sirmaur but later shifted it. So the Ratesh was already an established Pargana in 1158 AD1. During the time of subsequent rulers the capital of the Sirmour state was again shifted to different places including Kot and Neri in Ratesh Pargana. Hence, Kot remained the power centre of this region. The present dynasty of Thakurs of Kot is said be the brother of ruler of Sirmour, the separation is possibly territorial. The usual hierarchy of a big state was Maharaja (head of Nation)- Raja (head of State)- Rana or Thakur (head of Pargana or Thakurai). So it can be concluded that Kot remained one of the capital of Sirmour state, the latest being founded at Nahan in 1621 AD by Karam Parkash. The present dynasty of Thakurs administered the state till 1947, when Ratesh was merged in union of India2.Edit below overview about Sonthal
