With a strategic plan, the construction of the city started in 1727. It took around 4 years to complete the major palaces, roads and square. The city was built following the principles of Vastu Shastra and was divided into nine blocks, out of which two consist of the state buildings and palaces, whereas the remaining seven blocks were allotted to the public.
