Abstract

This paper examines Badoh-Pathari and Gyaraspur, twin towns in Vidisha district with rich Gupta, Pratihara, and Rashtrakuta historical connections. In Badoh, two notable structures have been unearthed near the Jain temple: a Gateway (Toran Dwar) and the Bedi, the former having become part of a residential structure and the latter obscured by vegetation. Gyaraspur, another town in the Vidisha district, features prominent landmarks like the Bajramath temple, Dhekinath stupa, Ath Khamba, Hindola Torana, and Maladevi temple, reflecting the coexistence of Hinduism, Jainism, and Buddhism. These towns contain various archaeological sites, some protected but many unexplored or incorporated into residences. The paper also discusses a watchtower-like structure near Hindola Torana, emphasizing the region’s religious diversity and tolerance.
