Dewan sayed Mehmood son of Sayed Abdul majid completed the fort in 1068 Hijri. "Moradabadi Darwaza" and "Changa Darwaza" were the gates and a big bazar famous by the name "Bada Bazar" and the houses. For all this construction work he used this part of sand (Matti). It became a huge gap in this area, the rain water filled it up and it became water pool (talab). This is famously known as KUSHAK TALAB.
