This Kos Minar is located at Kutail, District Karnal. In 1619 CE, emperor Jahangir ordered Baqir Khan, the Fauzdar of Multan, to erect a kos-minar (mile-stone) at every kos (3.20 km) on the old imperial route. Kos-minars are brick structures standing on square platform covered with plaster. Each minar soars from a tapering octagonal base which is separated from the upper circular portion by a moulding. During the Mughal time, the Kos Minars were important landmark of the imperial route and travel.
