Nestled in the mountain ranges of the Himalaya, Dehradun is one of the

oldest cities of India and is recently declared as the Provisional Capital of

newly created Uttaranchal (Now Uttarakhand) State in the month of

Nov2000. Also known as the Adobe of Drona, Dehradun has always

been an important center for Garhwal rulers which was captured by the

British. The headquarters of many National Institutes and Organizations

like ONGC, Survey Of India, Forest Research Institute, Indian Institute of

Petroleum etc are located in the city. Some of the premier educational and

Training Institutes like Indian Miltary Academy, RIMC(Rashtriya Indian

Military College), Indira Gandhi National Forest Academy(IGNFA), Lal

Bahadur Shahstri National Academy of Administration(LBSNAA)etc are

 tourists, pilgrims and enthusiasts from various walks of life to its serene

environs. Add to this the abundance of special Basmati rice, tea and

leechi gardens which contribute in turning the city into a paradise.

The district is named after its chief city Dehra Dun. Dehra appears to be

a corruption of dera signifying a temporary abode or camp. During the

reign of Aurangzeb, Ram Rai, Guru of the Udasi Sikhs on being ordered

by the Mughal king to retire to the wilderness of the Dun, had pitched his

tents here in what is now the Khurbura locality of the town and has also

built a temple near Dhanawala. Around these two sites, grew up the town

popularly known as Dehra. The term dun or doon means the low lands at

the foot of a mountain range, and as the bulk of the district lies in such a

terrain, it justified the dun part of the name.

Another derivation of the term dun is stated to be from Dronashram,

hermitage of Guru Dronacharya of Mahabharata fame, who sojourned for

a season in the village of Devara, situated near to Dehra to perform his

devotions at a lonely spot.
