    You might also want to check the small shrine on the western side of the courtyard. It holds a copper plaque dated 1662 that records a Maratha officer’s gold donation an early example of patronage that helped the temple survive 18th century conflicts. If you’re in Raipur, a short drive from Hukam’s Lalit Mahal puts you right outside the temple, and the local bus stops just outside the gates, making it easy to hop off and explore. Have you seen the plaque in person?
