Rahatgarh is a town and a nagar panchayat in Sagar district in the Indian state of Madhya Pradesh. Its also a tehsil headquarter.
History
Originally built by Sultan Muhamad Khan (Circa 17th Century AD), Rahatgarh Fort is situated on the top of north west peak along the range of hills near the town itself. It can be approached by means of a long winding passage, and the walls of the fortification are approximately 100 m thick.
An inscription of the Paramara king Jayavarman II, dated 28 August 1256 CE, was issued at Rahatgarh and discovered on a stone slab by Alexander Cunningham during the 1870s. The 14-line inscription is written in Sanskrit prose.[2]
The inscription drafts a royal document of Maharajadhiraja ("great king") of Dhara. As the inscription is partially damaged, different scholars have read the name of the king as "Jayasimhadeva" or "Jayavarmadeva".[3]
It is possible that Jayavarman captured the area from the Chandelas.[4]
