Atru

Atru village in Atru Tehsil of Baran district in Rajasthan, India.[1]

History

A 1257 CE inscription of the Paramara king Jayavarman II was found on the pillar of the Gadgach temple in Atru. The 6-line inscription records the grant of a village to a poet. It is possible that Jayavarman extended the Paramara territories in present-day Rajasthan, resulting in his conflict with the Chahamana rulers of Ranthambore.[2]
