Lakha Banjara Lake

There is no authentic information available about the origin of Sagar Lake, but many legends are popular.^{[citation needed]} The most common story among these is about the sacrifice of the daughter-in-law and son of the great hero Lakha Banjara. Experts^[who?] believe that it could be a lake formed naturally, which later some king or community might have dug out to make it more useful for the public and given it the shape of a huge lake. But this is only a guess because there is no evidence available for this.^{[original research?]} When Udanshah built a small fort here in 1660 and established the first settlement at Parkota village, the pond was already present.

There is also a legend that Lakha Banjara sacrificed his daughter-in-law and son for this lake. Lakhishah Banjara was a hero in some Asian countries, who had an independent army and his own empire.
