Explanation:
Kund is another name for Stepwell.
Kund is the local name designated to a covered underground tank . It is mainly developed to tackle the paucity of drinking water.
The kunds are constructed with the help of cements or local materials. These kunds are mostly concentrated in the arid region of western Rajasthan and also in areas which have moderate to high concentration of saline with limited groundwater.
It is believed that in 1607 AD the first ever construction of kund was undertaken by Raja Sursingh in the village Vadi-ka-Melan in western Rajasthan.
In 1759 AD a kund was constructed during the period of Maharaja Udai Singh in the Mehrangarh Fort in Jodhpur.
