Introduction of Jabalpur   The city of Jabalpur was the capital of the erstwhile medieval Gond rulers. It is not only an important historical place, but it is also famous for
the Marble Rocks gorge on Narmada River, near it.It is an administrative and educational center and is the gateway to important wildlife sanctuaries
around it. It is one of the largest cities in the Indian state of Madhya PradeshThe origin of Jabalpur goes back to ancient times. It was then known as Tripuri and was governed by Hayahaya rulers. The ancient Indian epic of
Mahabharata has references to his city. It became a part of the great Mauryan and the Gupta Empires. In AD 875, it was taken over by the Kalchuri
dynasty who made Jabalpur their capital. In the 13th century, the Gonds seized it and made it their capital. By the early 16th century, it had become the powerful kingdom of Gondwana. From time to time, the Mughal rulers tried to overrun it. The legendary Gond Queen Rani Durgavati died
fighting the Mughal forces led by the great Mughal Emperor Akbar. It finally fell to the Marathas in 1789 and was taken over by the British in 1817,
when they defeated the Marathas. The British made Jabalpur the commission headquarters of the Narmada territories and established a cantonment
here.
