Explanation:

  • It was built for his favorite queen, Mrignayani, who was a Gujar by caste.
  • Since the queen requested a separate palace with a constant supply of water from the Rai River, it was constructed.
  • The palace is located within the Gwalior Fort complex.
  • Today, the Gujari Mahal houses an Archaeological Museum.

Information Booster:
  • Raja Man Singh Tomar was a great patron of music and authored Man Kautuhal.
  • Gwalior Fort is known as the "Gibraltar of India".
