Abandoned Shit Weekly Contest - №.4 - Commercial/Industrial - Kuldhara – Rajasthan india
The village of Kuldhara is popularly known to be a deserted ghost village that has been abandoned since 1800s. It is said to carry a curse of the villagers who vanished from there overnight, after having lived there for over 7 centuries.
The village lies in ruins, established in 1291 by the Paliwal Brahmins, who were a very prosperous clan and were known for their business acumen and agricultural knowledge. It has been said that one night in 1825 all the people in Kuldhara and nearby 83 villages vanished in dark. All of a sudden and without any warning.
Tales about this mystery include the fact that Salim Singh, the minister of the state, once visited this village and fell in love with the beautiful daughter of chieftain wanting to marry her. The minister threatened the villagers by saying that if they did not marry the girl to him, he would levy huge taxes. The chief of the village along with those of adjoining villages decided to abandon and migrate elsewhere to protect the girl’s honour. Nobody saw them leave nor did anyone figure where they went, they simply vanished. It is said that the villagers also cast a spell on the village as they left, cursing anyone who tried to inhabit the land.

Intresting. Butt sad about the rubbish of Salim Singh.
most probably they left the village in order to save the honor of that poor girl..
What I learnt from this story is that in old times, people were united and they cared for each other, that is why the whole village left that area combinedly. No one will anything like that nowadays. Pure people and pure Love is missing in this materialistic era.
I don't think that there is any curse there, the possible reasons that this area is still not inhabited can be the scarcity of water or may be it's a side area which is far away from city.
By the way, very well-written and pretty much scary blog brother :)
