Subject: General view


A Mughal-period distance marker located west
of the Old Grand Trunk Road/National Highway 44, in an open ground at Kheda,
Palwal, Haryana. Probably constructed between 1600 and 1699 CE, the octagonal
tower is built of lakhori bricks bonded with lime mortar and stands on a brick
platform. The monument is protected by the Archaeological Survey of India
(Chandigarh Circle) and remains well maintained, though surface blackening,
efflorescence, and localized plaster loss are visible; its base now lies below
the present road level.
