No. 5.-LADNU INSCRIPTION OF SADHARANA OF VIKRAMA SAMVAT 1373.
BY PANDIT RAM KARNA; JODHPUR. The stone bearing this inscription was originally kept in a niche provided in the walls of step-well situated on the south of the village of Ladnū, 20 miles N. W. of Didwanā, the principal town of the district of the same name, in the Jodhpur State. It was thence removed, as the story goes, by the Mahammadans to a dargāh of the same village, whence it was brought to the Historical Department of the State. It has now been, by the kind permission of His Highness the Mahārāja of Jodhpur, sent to the Ajmēr Museum. The step-well, with which our inscription was originally connected, was, in course of time, buried underground and it has, again, been recently unearthed by the present Thakur of Ladpü in V. S. 1958.
