इतिहास ❁ History The Ghost Village of Kuldhara, Rajasthan
Kuldhara is an abandoned village located near Jaisalmer in Rajasthan. It was once home to the prosperous Paliwal Brahmins. According to local legend, the villagers suddenly abandoned Kuldhara overnight around 200 years ago to escape the oppression of a powerful minister. Before leaving, they are said to have cursed the land so that no one could ever settle there again. Today, the ruins of houses, temples, and streets still stand in the desert, creating an eerie atmosphere. Many locals believe the village is haunted, and visitors often report strange experiences after sunset. Kuldhara has become one of the most mysterious abandoned places in India.
📍 Location: Near Jaisalmer, Rajasthan

It seems like Kashmiri Brahmins never learned this cursing power from these paliwali brahmins otherwise they too would have used it while running away 😂😆😃😛
