Detail 1680788972 Durgavati located in Damoh Even today, the stepwell of the government remains the main source of quenching thirst for the wild animals. It is filled with water for 415 months. Wild animals can easily come down the stairs and quench their thirst with the water of the stepwell. During the reign of Rani Durgavati, elephants and horses used to quench their thirst by going down the steps made in the stepwell to drink water. Today this stepwell is proving to be a boon for the wildlife.

Local elders tell that five stepwells were constructed in Singaurgarh Singrampur during the reign of Veerangana Rani Durgavati. In this, four step wells in Singrampur got ruined due to lack of maintenance and protection. A stepwell on the banks of Satghatiya is still a safe and useful water source. Bawdi built by Rani Durgavati, which later became a post post during the British rule. Due to lack of maintenance, it has reached the verge of being ruined.

On the other hand, this stepwell is being dug by some people in the greed of money, which has been damaged. The Forest Department is not serious about the security of the Bawdi located in the Rani Durgavati Sanctuary area, as a result of which the Bawdi is being dug up and damaged in the wake of buried money. While the elders tell the history of Bawdi, in ancient times the postman used to carry the mail from Jabera. From this post post, another postman used to forward the mail with Gubra. Singrampur Ranger Ashray Upadhyay says, he will investigate the matter. Will try to preserve it. ,
