Currently half an acre area has been reduced from all four sides. At this point it would not be wrong to call it an encroached pond. The illegal colony in adjoining Khasra No. 321/3 has been destroyed. People built permanent houses and started living in them. There were 4-5 wells during the Maratha period on this land near the pond, half of which are no longer visible. As well as being a historic site, this pool has also been used by the public in the past. The cattle farmers who used the pond were an exception to its shrinking existence. The matter reached the court but they could not collect any documents.
In the year 2021, the then collector Deepak Singh had bordered the pond. The team along with the SDM at the time Pawan Baria had found trespassing in him during the borders. No further action was taken after this. His own file was buried.
MLA had ownership rights 10 years ago
According to the records registered in the land records branch, 2 acres 57 decimal land Khasra No. 322 was owned by Sagar MLA Shailendra Jain till 10 years ago. He had bought this land from Mahesh Kanhaiya. Kanhaiya used to work as a steward for the owner of this land, Arundhati Devi Bhatt. In 2008, MLA Jain purchased 1 acre 98 decimal land from neighboring Khasra No. 321/3. After this, in the year 2013-14, he sold this entire land to Arvind Sahu, partner of Janmjay Property and Developers. According to the concerned Halka Patwari, earlier this was the same Khasra land. After the arrangement, a separate Khasra was formed.
History of the pool
This pit was dug in search of treasure, two umbrellas were destroyed, one remains.
History expert Dr. Rajneesh Jain says that the mausoleums of the initial three generations of the Dave or Dubey family were built in the form of canopies in the pond complex. On which inscription plates was he present. At that time the area of this pond was huge. Parmanand Dave’s five sons, Durgadutt, Devkrishna, Kevalkrishna, Nirbhayram and Nathuji, born to Navina Saraswatibai, died between 1834 and 1919. Kevalkrishna’s lineage extended from Acharatbai. The generation of his four sons Bhailal, Mayashankar, Hiralal and Govardhan existed until 1966.
Of these, Kanchanbai, daughter of Mayashankar Dave, was married to Babulal Bhatt from a village near Rahli, one of whose sons, KV Bhatt, came to Sagar and settled and the other son, Balaji Bhatt, became the first barrister. from Rahli. KV Bhatt’s family produced bureaucrats like Vijaykumar Bhatt who now lives in Bhopal. One brother Ashok Kumar Bhatt was Superintendent of Income Tax Madhya Pradesh. Nowadays Nilay Bhatt, son of one brother, Anilkumar, is a famous cameraman in the Mumbai film industry. The original generation of the Dave family has been erased from the land revenue records of Sagar. The legend that the pond’s owners were diamond merchants and the wealth that came from the emeralds on 27 camels made Dave Pond a target for treasure hunters. All parts of the pool were excavated. Two Chhatris were destroyed in search of treasure.
story too
A pit was dug for elephants to bathe and animals to drink water.
Another story is told and heard about the history of this pool. The elders say that there used to be a lambardar named Raghuvar Dubey in Subedar’s ward. Lambardar Dubey had kept an elephant. His elephant Lakha used to come to the Banjara lake every day to bathe. The British imposed a fine of one thousand silver coins on the Lambardar for bathing the elephant in the lake. After this, Lambardar Dubey built a pool for the elephant to bathe and provide water for the animals. He had declared this pool public. It was named Dubey Pond after the name Lambardar Raghuvar Dubey.
