Pataudi is a town, a tehsil and one of the 4 sub-divisions of Gurugram district, in the Indian state of Haryana, within the boundaries of the National Capital Region of India.

[1][2] The small princely state Pataudi State was formed in 1804 by East India Company with 40 villages including Pataudi village (as it was then) as reward to Faiz Talab Khan a Pashtun of the Barech tribe for aiding the Company against the Maratha Empire during the Second Anglo-Maratha War and the English made Faiz Talab Khan Nawab of Pataudi.

Mansoor Ali Khan son of the former nawab was former captain of India cricket team.

[5] Nearby Akbar Manzil, built after 1857 as the official residence of the then Nawab, was later converted into a kachehri (judicial complex), and is now used as a godown (store).

[14] BJP Government chief minister Manohar Lal Khattar announced a new city adjoining Gurugram in June 2018.

The proposed city will be well connected to neighbouring urban centres through national and state highways, the Kundli-Manesar-Palwal (KMP) Expressway and other major districts roads.

The consultant is also expected to suggest the road network plan, metro rail plan, required rail and road linkages and public transportation for the proposed city and assess the proposed social, economic and physical infrastructure.
