Why does a police station in MP's Satna protect Ravana’s statue?

A police station in MP's Satna district protects a 300-year-old Ravana statue worshipped by devotees. Unlike the usual 10-headed depiction, it has nine heads, as locals believe Ravana offered one head to Lord Shiva. According to local folklore, Kothi rulers organised Ramlila across a river, where Lord Rama symbolically shot arrows at Ravana's statue from the opposite bank.
