History

An inscription was found here in the 19th century dating to the time of Jivitagupta II.[3] This is a valuable source of information for the later Guptas, naming king Jivitagupta as the son of Vishnugupta and his queen Ijjadevi.[4] There is an ancient Sun temple in the village which received land grants from the Gupta and Maukhari rulers.[5] The location was photographed by Henry Baily Wade Garrick in 1881–82.[6]

Administration
