Bundelkhand Diary | Kalinjar Fort | Neelkanth Temple | S01E03

Kalinjar is a fortress city in the Bundelkhand region of central India. It is located in Banda District of Uttar Pradesh state, near the temple city and World Heritage Site of Khajuraho.

After exploring Ajaygarh we went to Kalinjar.

It served several of Bundelkhand's ruling dynasties, including the Chandela dynasty of Rajputs in the 10th century, and the Solankis of Rewa. The fortress contains several temples dating as far back as the Gupta dynasty of the 3rd-5th centuries.

Neelkanth Templeis one of the famous and religious site in this fort. Here we have seen some amazing stone carvings and rock cut tanks. We also witness the Evening Aarti of Neelkanth Mahadev.

EP02: Ajaygarh Fort

Happy Republic Day

All the time we talks about our constitutional rights; lets know our duty too.

The Fundamental Duties of citizens were added to the Constitution by the 42nd Amendment in 1976, upon the recommendations of the Swaran Singh Committee that was constituted by the government earlier that year. Originally ten in number, the Fundamental Duties were increased to eleven by the 86th Amendment in 2002, which added a duty on every parent or guardian to ensure that their child or ward was provided opportunities for education between the ages of six and fourteen years. The other Fundamental Duties obligate all citizens to respect the national symbols of India, including the Constitution, to cherish its heritage, preserve its composite culture and assist in its defence. They also obligate all Indians to promote the spirit of common brotherhood, protect the environment and public property, develop scientific temper, abjure violence, and strive towards excellence in all spheres of life. Citizens are morally obligated by the Constitution to perform these duties. However, like the Directive Principles, these are non-justifiable, without any legal sanction in case of their violation or non-compliance. There is reference to such duties in international instruments such as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, and Article 51A brings the Indian Constitution into conformity with these treaties.

The Fundamental Duties noted in the constitution are as follows:

Bundelkhand Diary | Ajaigarh Fort | Palace | Secret hidden site of Hindu and Jain Tantra | S01E02

India has a unique collection of hidden gems and Ajaigarh is one of them, a forgotten page of history which story, never been told. Situated 70 KM away from Khajuraho, this Chendla city, which have unbelievable layers of history left neglected and unrelieved. A 400 years old deserted palace attracts treasure hunters with a magnum attitude, but the real mystery is spread over in 2 Square KM at the nearby hill top fort.
Ajaigarh means ‘un-invaded fort’ in Devnagri language. With its remote location and difficult terrain, it is also submerged in dense forest. The ASI has been listed this site but left no clue to understand the vivacity of it. Not only the Chandela’s of 12th century AD, but it have prominent indication of Kushan influence what makes the site at least 2500 years old. It has various Hindu and Jain artefact, mystifying stone curved idol of Tanrik gods and goddesses and a fort hold; built and rebuilt by multiple dynasties.

Lost wax technique of metal casting has been in practice for last 6500 years. In Indus valley civilization we find several ideals of god and goddess made out of this technique. The Bastar tribe from present day Chhattisgarh had been practicing a very unique style of casting and modelling the metal where they use wax wires to decorate their art pieces, it called Dhokra. Few Deseeded of this tribe moved in to West Bengal and start living at Sadhur Bagan, Dwariapur near Shantinikaten, Bolpur.
