Aul is a town and the headquarters of Aul CD Block and Aul Tehsil in Kendrapara district in the Indian state of Odisha. It is 17 km from Chandabali. Aul is surrounded by the river Kharasrota and Brahmani on north and south respectively. To its east is Bhitarkanika National Park.

History

Aul has a clear history of establishment. This state is an outcome of the war between the Suryabanshis and Bhoi Banshis for the throne of Utkal at Cuttack. The ancestors of Aul raj family belonged to the last independent king Gajapati Mukunda Deb of Khurda. Gajapati Mukunda Deb ruled Odisha for a16 years long period from 1559 to 1567. His ancestors were considered as the feudal chiefs under the Gajapati and before acquiring the throne he worked there as the  military chief.

When Gajapati Maharaja Pratap Rudra Deb died in 1540 his minister played foul and started conspiracy against Kalua Deb Allias Ramachandra Deb-I and Kakharua Deb alias Purusottama Deb-II, the two legal sons of Gajapati maharaja. They were killed by him in 1541.

After this incident, Minister Gobinda Bidyadhar acquired the throne at Cuttack and ruled till 1548. In the meantime Gobinda's nephew Raghubhanja Chhotray created chaos and attacked Gobinda to get the throne but could not succeed. During this period Utkal was threatened by the Afghans of Bengal also. Chakrapratapa became the King from 1548 to 1557 and after Chakrapratap,  Raghuram Ray Chotaraya and Narasimha Ray Jena ruled Utkal till 1559.[2][3]

In 1559 Mukundra Deb the Army chief of Gajapati ascended the throne and started his reigning in the name of Gajapati Tailenga Mukunda Deb as an heir of the Chalukya dynasty.

He fought bravely against the Afghans and became popular by digging ponds and establishing new villages in different places of Puri. But the Minister named Janarddan Bidyadhar started treachery against him. Looking forward to the throne of Gajapati, Janardan made friendship with the Afghans and dethroned Mukunda Deva by killing him in the Gohira Tikiri Fort. Janarddan made his son investiture on the Gajapati's throne in the name of Ramachandra Deb-II.

The wife of Mukunda Deb ran away with some of the king's followers and her two kids Rama Chandra Deb and Chakadi Bhramarbar. They approached the Mughal emperor at Delhi but couldn't succeed. Mahanubhab Samarat Akbar sent two Hindu kings Todar Mall and Raja Maan Singh from his Durbar to Puri to look into the matter and have a solution. Janarddan tried much to establish Ramachandra Deb-II as the real Gajapati of Odisha. During the Chandan Yatra time Raja Maan Singh entitled Ramachandra Deb-II as the real Gajapati and offered him the Gaddi Prasad. On the other hand, he divided Utkal into three parts between Ramachandra Deb-II and other two brothers.

Telenga Ramachandra Deva got Aul killa as his new Kingdom and Chhakadi Bhramarbar got Patia with Sarangagad fort. From that day Aul came to the front and prospered with Talenga Ramachandra Deb but always cheeked the Gajapati rule in Odisha. History says that they were always supported the external forces and tried to save their state and never cooperated with the Gajapati and his allies. Folk tale says something older in its story.
