Wreckage of an Ilyushin Il-76TD, from Kazakhstan Airlines Flight 1907, fell in Rohtak District as part of the Charkhi Dadri mid-air collision.

The Japanese township is planned to be set up near Madina village, 15 kilometres (9.3 miles) from Rohtak city Ashoka, along NH9 towards Meham.

Many stone facades with carvings and motifs were stripped from the walls and sold to heritage traders for paltry sums.

[citation needed] Muslim masons did all the decorative work in stone and fabricated woodcrafted door sets in these havelis.

In spite of a local chapter of Indian National Trust for Art and Cultural Heritage (INTACH) functioning in the district, not much except listing of valuable properties could be done because most heritage properties are in private ownership and INTACH's local chapter does not have funds or the infrastructure to carry out listing and conservation work.

[citation needed] Early in 2009, Singh completed detailed profiles of about 40 heritage value properties both in private as well as public domain with photographs and handed over the documents to the convener of the Haryana chapter of INTACH.

This documentation, appreciated both by architects as well as art historians,[citation needed] has also been placed for reference in the archives in the central library of INTACH Headquarters located at Lodi Estate, New Delhi.

[citation needed] Architectural descriptions of several properties including many topics that belong to the life and culture of the people of Haryana have been published in an illustrated book, Traditions of North India - Art, Crafts and Architecture of Haryana, authored by Bhup Singh Gulia and edited and contributed by Ranbir Singh.

A couple of illustrated articles on the old skills of woodcrafts persons of Haryana are under consideration of publication in Marg, a magazine on art and culture.

[citation needed] The oldest shrine at this place was built above the Smadh of Sidh Baba Chaurangi Nath (Bhagat Pooran Mall, son of Raja Shalivan of Sialkot, now in Pakistan) under which also lay the grave of Sidh Baba Masth Nath who lived in the mid-eighteenth-century AD.

The shrine of Sidh Baba Tota Nath, in this campus, had frescoes painted in the early nineteenth century and done in Rajput style.

It is heartening to note the monuments and frescoes were preserved as images by Ranbir Singh, the renowned cultural historian of Haryana.

[citation needed] Similarly, in 2007, the carved stone facade of the Digambar Jain Mandir in Barra Bazar was stripped off and sold just for Rs.1 lakh (about US $2500) in the year 2006.

According to the 2011 census Rohtak district had a population of 1,061,204,[4] roughly equal to the nation of Cyprus[5] or the US state of Rhode Island.

NH 71 A is also its lifeline and forms one of the main commercial roads of India on which thousands of heavy vehicles and cars ply daily.
