Very detailed post on the history of the Ashokan Pillar @curatorofmemory
There were two pillars transported by Firoz Shah Tughlaq from a small village in Haryana.
Firoz Shah Tughlaq was a very religious person and he believed that placing these two historical pillars in his kingdom would further bless his rule.
Here is my post on Firoz Shah Kotla where the second pillar was placed on top of a pyramidal structure.
