Dear,Friend
Mahabalipuram, or Mamallapuram, was the chief seaport of the Pallavas who

ruled most portions of South India from the first century B.C to the eighth century

A.D., and it is now recognized as the site of some of the greatest architectural and

sculptural achievements in India. The temples of Mamallapuram, built largely

during the reigns of Narasimhavarman and his successor Rajasimhavarman,

showcase the movement from rock-cut architecture to structural building.

[...] Just break free, puff up your chest, take in a lungful of air, and go out and see that life is too huge to be confined. Don’t just live for the moment but live in the moment. Leave the route that you take daily, and turn your steps into a road that you aren t aware of. Who knows, you might across the most sensational garden. There are chances that it might be just a putrified garbage dump also, but then you won’t have the regret of not having taken the path, would you?Explore the world, and for that one doesn’t have to thumb through the Lonely Planet editions to enjoy the exotic destinations. If I had just followed the strict path, I wouldn’t have seen the Nawgarh Fort (near Bah). If I had chosen to hear the voice of reason, I wouldn’t have seen the Ganges flow at Soron. However irritating the bambas and bumps are, they have given me an enrinching insight into a country that I didn’t ever know existed.Yesterday I lived in Nepal, today I have pitched my tent in Agra, and tomorrow it could be another destination. I am not only prepared for it, but looking forward to visiting a new place and not just as a tourist, but as a citizen! I don’t know which one, but that’s where all the excitement builds up. [...]

Hi Deepak!
Its nice to read ur experience about The Bhadawar Estate.
As most of the readers cited their views on crime in UP.
But the place you visited, was Naugawan, where the fort is situated, has historic importance. The crime rate is lowest there.
We are living in India not in US, so being surprised by the dacoits dont suit.
In high tech cities like Gurgaon, there is crime everywhere.
There are serial killers, cab killers even killers in the form of domestic aid.
What will you say to that…
Modern crime or urbanization of Chambal Crime…
Every coin has two faces…

If you were living US, then I cant even imagine what will be ur views about India….
Sorry but no sorry

Hi DJ,
I have always been searching for talks , blogs and stories about these places that you recently visited. Everything that you described here and as mentioned by Sandeep is known to be true to me as well since my childhood. It was an everyday discussion for most of us in the family. I am from this small town called Bah and Bateshwar was part of a regular vists for the family on most Mondays which happens to be the day of Shiva. The town of Bah was one of the offices of the British East India company and it now houses the Municipal office in one of the old bulidingsin the town. The current Maharaja Bhadawar as he called by the locals is Mr Aridaman Singh Bhadawar who is now into active politics as his father Late Maharaja Ripudaman Singh. On a whole it gave me a feeling that the story known to me since my childhood is known to many others and is more of a reality to us.

Dear DJ, Your explanation is GOOD, and most of the details (stories) you learned on your trip are the ones known to me as TRUE, since my childhood. I am from the village “Kaliyanpur”; which can be seen across Yamuna from the 101 temples. I was visiting my village during every school summer vacation. Your description has made the memories afresh. Thanks for the same. I shall visit my village again when I return to India for vacation. You missed many more places nearby Bateshawar. May be you can visit again.

His Majesty Shri Tripurdaman Singh Bhadawar ji

I have been visiting to ‘Hatkaat’ every year during summer vacations, which I used to spend at my native village Sarokhipura. Presently I am residing in Delhi and shortly planning to visit Bateshwar and would also like to see the Forts suggested by you, I have heard and read lot about Nawgaon Fort & Ater Fort, and would like to visit these palaces. Still I find that there is not much information available on Bhadawar History, I have compiled what ever information available on internet and planning to put up a website having brief history and legends associated with the Princely State every person in our village cherish.

I feel that we should have developed these palaces into heritage sites and have introduced them to local masses as tourist destinations, at least what Mulayam Singh has done to his village –‘Saifie’ should have been done long back to restore the glory of Bhadawar Estate, here I am not talking of politics but I really feel the depleted state of these Mansions are showing collective neglect of everyone staying in Bhadawar.

We feel Pride in writing “BHADAWAR” on our Vehicles and Trucks and neglecting our real Jewels, which are remotely accessible.

Sir, When I find you here, I have confidence that things are now going to change now. Anyway Kindly allow me to visit the Forts named by you. Thanks.

How on earth did you gain access to this place???? Well I own that fort you spoke about and you have romanticised the place a bit. But it really is b eautiful and I do hope that more people come to see Bateshwar. It is really beautiful. But I really want to know who took you to the fort of Nowgaon and how you gained access there??? Plus thats only half the place you must see Ater, Pinahat and Bhind as well and of course Kachaura where the British fought the mutineers in 1857.
