The Uttar Pradesh government will develop Baghpat's Baranava village, linked to the Pandavas, under its Mahabharata circuit project. The state tourism department has sanctioned ₹1 crore for it. The site is associated with Lakshagriha, a lac palace built by Kauravas to burn Pandavas alive. Surviving ruins, dating back to 2000 BC, are preserved by the Archaeological Survey of India.
