(The encroachment adjacent the campus of the monument)  

 This place has a Shiva temple of kulturi period which is reflected by the beautiful artistic style of building the temple. Along with the temple, this campus has structure as Ashram to stay for pilgrims. On its time this might have been a magnificent campus. This place is under the supervision of ASI but as usual there is no notice board giving the details of history of this place ecept that this is a protected monument and no construction is allowed……….  .However number of kucha-pakka  colony of huts are very much attached with the campus of the monument. The CCTV cameras have also been installed by ASI in its campus. It is different that these cameras are not functioning. What is the purpose of installing it.?
