  • Khurja (Hindi: खुर्जा) és una ciutat i municipalitat del districte de Bulandshahr a Uttar Pradesh situada a 28° 15′ N, 77° 51′ E / 28.250°N,77.850°E amb una població segons el cens de 2001 de 98.403 habitants, i de 29.277 el 1901. La ciutat i comarca fou concedida als rajputs bale sultan lliure de renda, per Firuz Shah Tughluk. El seu nom deriva de lurdú "kharija" que vol dir "cancel·lada" o "condonada" (per què li foren perdonats els impostos a causa del fet que les maresmes feien difícil i poc rendible l'agricultura). Els descendents del primer concessionari van conservar la possessió fins que la van perdre a mans de Suraj Mal, Raja jat de Bharatpur, el 1740, i els territoris que van conservar els van acabar perdent a finals del segle xviii a mans de Daulat Rao Scindia. Fou erigida en municipalitat el 1866. (ca)

The principal inhabitants of Khurja are the Pashtuns, mainly members from the Kheshgi Dynasty of Timur's army. The name Khurja is derived from the Urdu word kharija meaning, cancelled or condemned, as the revenue for this town was waived because this land included many swamps and the agricultural possibilities were rare. Khurja is now famous for its ceramics. With over 500 factories producing ceramic works, its skyline is dotted with chimneys. (en)
