Niche of daughter in law
It is also known for its pillar with the images of a mother-inlaw, her daughter-in-law and a neighbor. The first is bitten by a snake, the second by a monkey and the third by a scorpion. This is symbolic of the mother-in-law, who had wrongly accused her innocent daughter-in-law. Since the mother-in-law got undue support of the neighbor, the daughter-in-law had no alternative but to jump in a well.
