Dwaraka has been clearly mentioned in MBH as 'dwaarvarti'. I guess the exact word 'dwaraka' is not there. Somebody pls correct me if reqd.
The mention of dwaraka comes in Mausala parva, where the yaduvamshi people destroy themselves as cursed by Gandhari.Also another interesting fact...to know is...
SurajKundThis is where Drona taught Pandavas and Kauravas.
This was their Gurukul. its south of Delhi!During the peace mission,
Lord Krishna asked Dhritarashtra to give only 5 villages to Panadavas.In those days villages were called pats...and those 5 pats today are Sonipat,Panipat,Tilpat,BaghpatHastinapur is in UP..and is still called HastinapurKurukshetra...As we all know is still called by the same name...and interesting thing is nothing grows there....so much blood flowed into that area..that the land is still barren.....
1)perhaps Gurgaon was the place where Dronacharya taught the princes. Gurgaon come from 'Guru Gram'.
2)Dehradun is the original home of dronacharya. It come from the "Dehra (home) + Dron".
3)Karn did not join the Battle for the first 10 days. He camped at the place today called Karnal.
4)During Agyat vaas of one year, the Pandavas and Draupadi stayed in Matsyadesh, somewhere on the border of Uttaranchal and Himachal pradesh. The place called Sirhind (in this region) comes from Sairindhri (Draupadi's pseudonym from that year).
