Sangni Fort

Short introduction

Be prepared. Prepare your horses, we are about to ride straight into the Sikh regime. Sangni Fort, also known as Sangani Killa is a fort of Sikh Perio

d near the village Takal in Kallar Syedan Tehsil, Rawalpindi District, in Punjab, Pakistan. The fort dates back to the earlier half of the 19th Century. The fort was built in the Sikh Period (1799–1849). This area came under Sandhawalia Jat ruler Maharaja Ranjit Singh in 1814. It was built to control the area and to facilitate tax collection. The British made this area part of Bewal. Gradually the fort lost its importance and became obscure. The keepers of a nearby obscure shrine moved the shrine to this fort.
