Finally I got to visit the town and fort.<br /><br />Yeah, the fort is an interesting place.

I'm not sure if staying at the fort is allowed however it may not be a good option considering safety.siddeshwarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05202482098840760884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6917273566237443741.post-20246023597102667612016-03-22T00:33:12.044+05:302016-03-22T00:33:12.044+05:30Gutti (Gooty) is in AP in Anantpur district near G...Gutti (Gooty) is in AP in Anantpur district near Guntakal. There is a massive fort in Gooty from where Murarirao Ghorpade ruled till 1777 when Hyder Ali captured the fort and tortured Murarirao Ghorpade to death.<br /><br />I will be visiting the fort on 24 March. Any facilities for staying overnight in Gajendragad village?

Forts are not mere walls, they are alive with stories from history hovering in and around them. For a king, forts were as important as his army. "More forts, Stronger kingdom" was Shivaji's maxim.

Ghorpade's book "The Grand Resistance" there I learn how during the 18th century the Ghorpade branch of Maratha had helped secure RajaRam from Raigad to Gingee (!)<br /><br />Rajaram was Ch.shivaji's second son and declared the new king after Aurangzeb cruely killed Sambhaji in 1689.
