Tonk Town
Tonk is a town in the Indian state of Rajasthan. The town is situated 95 km (60 mi) by road south from Jaipur, near the right bank of the Banas River. It is the administrative headquarters of Tonk District. Tonk was also the capital of the eponymous princely state of British India from 1817 to 1947. Kamal Amrohi’s movie Razia Sultan were shot in Tonk in 1981–82.

It is also known as Rajasthan’s Nawabo ka shahar.
The founder of the state and its first ruler was Pindari Nawab Muhammad Amir Khan (1769–1834), a dacoit and militant leader of Pashtun descent from Afghanistan. In 1806, Khan grabbed the area, taking it from a retreating regime Yashwant Rao Holkar. The British government captured it in turn. Khan then received the state of Tonk from the British Government who returned it. In 1817, after the Third Anglo-Maratha War, Amir Khan submitted to the British British East India Company and kept his territory of Tonk while receiving the title of Nawab. Tonk was founded one year later after Khan was granted land by the ruler of Indore.
