Darbhanga Maharaj's Incomplete Love Story: 51-Acre Pond Built in Memory of Maharani

  • Darbhanga Maharaj Kameshwar Singh's second wife, Maharani Kameshwari Priya, passed away just three years after their marriage.
  • Maharaj Kameshwar Singh fell in love with Kameshwari Priya at first sight, who was from Mangrauni village, Madhubani district.
  • To immortalize her memory, the Maharaj had a grand temple built and a massive 51-acre pond, now known as Kameshwari Talab, constructed in her maternal village Mangrauni.
  • The Kameshwari Talab spans 51 acres, with 29 acres of water and 22 acres of surrounding land, and is currently managed by the Kameshwar Singh Trust.
  • The Maharaj maintained a deep connection with Mangrauni village, even overseeing his sister-in-law's wedding and creating a special album to preserve memories.

Why It Matters: Darbhanga Maharaj built a 51-acre pond and temple in Mangrauni to honor his beloved second wife.
