A Mughal-period distance marker located beside the road leading to Amin village, about 700 metres from the settlement, in Kurukshetra district, Haryana. Probably constructed between c. 1600 and 1699 CE, the octagonal tower is built of lakhori bricks with rubble masonry and lime mortar, and has a ring moulding and band between the octagonal base and cylindrical shaft. The monument is protected by the Archaeological Survey of India (Chandigarh Circle), was repaired in 1993–94, and remains well maintained despite minor cracks and surface blackening.
