History

Raja Dargahi Singh Bhati established his headquarters in the Dadri district and seized control of approximately 133 neighbouring parganali villages during turbulent times. He then paid Ahmad Shah Bahadur, also known as King Shall Alam the amount of Rs.29,000. He bought the rights to the farmlands in these villages. Additionally, he took on the name Rao as a title. The Maratha government approved of this tactic, and the British authorities did not interfere. Rao Ajit Singh Bhati, Dargahi Singh's grandson, eventually acquired ownership of the farm after receiving approval from his grandfather. During a period of political unrest and transition, the complicated power dynamics of land ownership are brought to light in this episode. By exploiting the disarray and utilising his riches and associations, Raja Dargahi Singh Bhati had the option to lay out a traction in the district and secure domain for his loved ones.

He owned a fort at Parikshitgarh in Meerut District, also known as Qila Parikishatgarh. At one point he possessed 277 villages purchased with his own funds.

During this era he ruled over the Noida, Greater Noida and Ghaziabad.
