[1][2] While Raja Raisal was in the Deccan (Burhanpur), Madho Singh Ladkhani and other grandsons of his, out of boldness and evil intentions, collected a number of vagabonds and forcibly took possession of their grandfather's property, which was called Khandela and was near Amber.

[3] It was the head seat of Hariramot Shekhawat dynasty whose other descendants established themselves at smaller fiefs or jagirs in nearby villages including Lisaria or Lasada, Abhawas, Kolwa, Bhomias, Bagariawas and Dhalyawas or Dhaliawas.

While his daughter was married to Prince Bharmal of Kishangarh and gave birth to Maharaja Roop Singh who was killed by Aurangzeb in the battle of Samugarh (Dharmat).

[7] The word Mundru (मुंडरू) is derived from Mudrika (मुद्रिका) or Mundri (मुंदरी) meaning 'a ring' as it was surrounded by a lake and has a gem like mountain made of a single stone.

Mundru village was initially a jungle surrounded by two rivers and a large pond and a gem-like fortress on a single rock hillock, over which they constructed a grand fort and a temple of 'Balaji' their family deity Lord Hanuman.

After being ousted from Khandela, grandsons of Princess Kisnavati of Khandela established themselves at Ranoli Fort, which was also usurped soon, and finally at village Mundru, in 1621 AD, at the heart of which is the fortress of Mundru Garh, the Balaji Dungari, built on a gem-like mountain made of a single rock surrounded by a round lake formed by two rivers - that lord Rama Chandra of Ayodhya, ancestor of the family, is said to have visited and marked his footsteps, it houses the ancient temple of lord Hanuman - the family deity: Monkey god, with the ancient custom of establishing a Hanuman temple before setting up any establishment in the territory.

As the legend goes, a saint was making soup when he got angry and threw the Chatu (spoon) at village Khatu, Handi (bowl) at Mundru and the Dhakani (cover) nearby, hence this structure came into being in between two rivers, hence the name Mundari or Mudrika meaning ring shaped in Sanskrit.
