Muli, Gujarat

Muli is a large village located 21 km (13 miles) southwest of the district capital of Surendranagar, Gujarat, India, by the Bhogavo River.

[2] Muli is a town as well as a subdivision (called taluka) that falls in Surendranagar district in the Saurashtra region of Indian Gujarat.

Stone Memorials at Muli commemorate the event when two communities fought over a partridge leading to the death of an estimated 640 persons.

The incident goes back to 1474,[4] when members of the Chabad community, who were tribal hunters shot a partridge, which was wounded and saved by the King mother of the Parmar dynasty of Muli state.

The King mother named Jombai, mother of Lakhdhirji, the king of the Sodha Parmar Rajputs found the injured bird lying behind the presiding deity of their community, and hence refused to hand over the bird.
