Following a Divisional Commissioner Court order, the revenue record of about 36 bighas surrounding Taragarh Fort in Ajmer has been updated, removing a long‑standing hurdle for its preservation and development.
Ajmer, Rajasthan – The revenue records for roughly 36 bighas of land that form part of the historic Taragarh Fort complex have been officially revised after a directive from the Divisional Commissioner Court. The amendment removes the previous legal ambiguity that had stalled conservation initiatives.
The change is expected to accelerate restoration work and infrastructure upgrades planned by the state archaeology department. Officials say that a clear land‑record will facilitate the allocation of funds, enable better coordination with heritage agencies, and attract tourism‑related investments.
State heritage officials indicated that the next steps include detailed site surveys, structural stabilization of the fort walls, and the development of visitor amenities. The updated record also paves the way for potential public‑private partnerships aimed at preserving the monument while boosting the local economy.
