Conclusion At first glance, this site does not seem to be of Mughals Period but constructed in this time period only by the way not by Mughals. The practice of Lakhori Bricks was also in the 18th Century AD, in the wall which can possibly be of fortress and in the wall of the well, the same brick has been used. But the shape of the niches located in the wall is rectangular and not arched type here it is Fig 6 : Use of Lakhori Bricks in Well and deep well shows the confirmed that it can be of the fort of King Nain Singh. Many use of different type of Bricks on Ujdi Kheri,Bahsuma. Mughals period pottery is also found from this site. That means this [Photo Courtesy: Priyank Bharati] site may be used by different peoples after Mahabharata Era. If this place is excavated then many mysteries can open up .Until then we will know this place by the name of Nain Singh not by the name of Pithama Bheeshm. After excavation it may be known for Bheeshm's Birth Place? It will take time to take this place in Mahabharata period from the 18th Century AD. If this place was also excavated in the 1950s when Hastinapur was excavated, then there would be great truth of Mahabharata.

Acknowledgement I gave thanks to Lord Shri Hari Vishnu who gave me a energy to Fig 7 : Wall which shows rectangular niche. This type of wrote the truth behind historical places. I also thanks to my father niche was not used by Mughals. Mughals used arched Mr. Brahampal Singh Advocate for evidentiary findings .I also niches not complete rectangular or square. Wall made of thanks to Natural Sciences Trust, Meerut for financial support. Lakhori Bricks (right hand side).[Photo Courtesy: Priyank Bharati] REFERENCES 1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bahsuma 2.
