Nyotini is a town and nagar panchayat in Hasanganj tehsil of Unnao district, Uttar Pradesh, India. Located 3 km southeast of Hasanganj on the right bank of the Sai river, Nyotini was historically one of the main centres of Muslim settlement in the district and it has several mosques and shrines. As of 2011, its population is 7,577, in 1,212 households.
==History== Nyotini is traditionally said to have been founded by the Raja Ram, a descendant of Raja Balbhaddar of Jhalotar. Raja Ram was supposedly on a hunting expedition when he came across the spot now occupied by the town, and he was struck by the beauty of the place. He cut away some of the "tin" grass which grew here and founded the town, which he called "Nyotini". His fort was supposedly on the site now occupied by an old dih.
