Dasuya (Dasua) is a town and a municipal council in Hoshiarpur district in the state of Punjab, India.

According to a report by The Tribune newspaper in 1977, the town is referred to in the ancient Indian epic, the Mahabharata, as being the seat of king Virata.

[1] In the closing decade of the fourteenth century, Dasuya at least twice witnessed the passage of an army during the struggle against the Muslim conquerors, Abu Bakar and Amir Taimur.

[2] Later, in December 1557, the army of the incumbent Sultan Akbar, led by his governor of Lahore, Khizr Khan, camped at the town while dealing successfully with a threat posed by Sikandar Sur.

Verma has noted that "Perhaps no other State of India has suffered as many territorial and political changes in recent times as the Punjab".
