In the heart of beautiful Gujarat, Pavagadh Hill stands quietly, holding stories of mythology, Rajput bravery, and the echoes of Sultan Mahmud Begda's victories. At the center of this tale is the sacred Maha Kali Mata temple, believed to be founded by the respected Vishwamitra Rishi in ancient times. Around 1300 AD, the descendants of Prithviraj Chauhan arrived in Champaner-Pavagadh, and they became known as the Khichi Rajputs. Khichi Hamir, one of their noble ancestors, played a crucial role in shaping the legacy of the Khichi Rajputs, leaving their mark on the sands of time.
