Royals of Jind were so impressed by Jaipuri Architecture that Sangrur's Streets and Bazaars are based on the Blueprint of Jaipur when city was expanded in 1850's

The Diwankhana of Sangrur is also a good example of Jaipuri Architecture in Punjab.
Diwankhana is located in the Banasar Garden.
It is surrounded by Lal Bagh and Banasar Garden.

#Sangrur the victory of @SimranjitSADA has to be seen with several contexts. He holds an opinion on a homeland for Sikhs. The last time he was in Lok Saba in 1989 he did not even take the oath. I suppose this time he will aim to bring on record was he has to say +
so is this vote against @AamAadmiParty . No This a vote against the sarkars at Delhi and Chandigarh. This is the rebellious Punjabi voting out there. So is this going to give rise to secessionist movement ? Again no. Mann was and is an ideologue not a militant. +
In 1990 Mann was in the firing line of militants as he and Atinder Pal ( then MP) were assumed to be negiotiating a deal for Punjab. Mann was not negotiating one that is fact. His views of the Indian Govt will be acerbic +
Explored some parts of #Punjab over the weekend. Pics of the fort at #Bathinda, the current standing structure of which is mentioned as the oldest existing fort in India. Some of the material used, though, has been dated to the Kushan period.
The bulbous bastions of the fort at #Bhatinda are similar to those I observed in another desert fort in this region some years ago - at Bhatner, in Hanumangarh, #Rajasthan. Perhaps a common feature in forts bordering the desert, as a protection in the flat terrain.
While the antiquity of the fort at #Bathinda is highly debatable, what is sadly clear is that the fort is on its last leg. The walls are crumbling to the extent that access to them has been barred for visitors.
