Comment :
Anangpal Tomar founded Delhi in 1052. A VS 1383 inscription in Delhi Museum states the founding of Delhi by the Tomars:
देशोऽस्ति हरियानाख्यो पॄथिव्यां स्वर्गसन्निभः — ढिल्लिकाख्या पुरी तत्र तोमरैरस्ति निर्मिता
Translation: “In a country called Haryana, which is equivalent to heaven on earth, Tomars built a city called Dhillika”.
The capital of Tomars changed a few times during the course of 457 years they ruled in the northern India. The first capital of the Tomar empire was Anangpur while the last one was Dhillikapuri (Delhi, Lal Kot)
