Hawa Mahal (After)

Now, after a long gap of 300 years and 15 Custodians, Shriji Arvind Singh Mewar the present 76th Custodian of House of Mewar and Chairman and Managing Trustee of Maharana of Mewar Charitable Foundation, Udaipur took the initiative of installing three massive wooden gates at Tripoliya in 2010 as a way of completing his obligations to his forefathers.

Relevance of Tripoliya

The gate was a symbol of sovereignty and an independent state, the then Maharanas used to enter through the middle Cusped arch while other subjects and visitors used the two side arched entries of Tripoliya to enter and exit the City Palace compound. Tripoliya in itself is the Crown of Manek Chowk.
