Teen Patti Chowk Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh

Teen Patti Square, also known as Teen Patti (Hindi: तीन पत्ती), and Maharana Pratap Chowk, is situated in the heart of Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh. This iconic location derived its name from a historical sculpture featuring a lady bathing under the shelter of three leaves, thus earning the moniker “Teen Patti” in Hindi, where “teen” signifies “three,” and “Patti” represents “leaf.”

Regrettably, recent developments have seen the removal of this historical statue from Teen Patti Chowk by the management and the Government of Jabalpur. According to reports, the decision to dismantle the figure was driven by its central location causing traffic disruptions. However, this move has sparked controversy, as locals argue that such decisions should involve community consensus rather than unilateral government action.

This incident raises concerns about the government’s apparent disregard for Jabalpur’s historical monuments and cultural heritage. The removal of Teen Patti may be just the beginning; it prompts worries that other landmarks, such as the Madan Mahal Qila, could face a similar fate in the future.

The decision by the Government of Jabalpur has faced widespread criticism on social networking platforms like Facebook. However, the reluctance of people to engage in politics makes it challenging for them to actively oppose such actions. The fate of historical monuments appears to be solely in the hands of the politicians.
