Mauganj

Mauganj lies in the eastern Baghelkhand uplands, beyond the city of Rewa. The country was formerly known as Mau Raj and is associated with the Sengar chiefs, who built forts at Mauganj and other places in the region. Wooded hills and the valleys of the Vindhyan plateau separate the settlements from the Ganges plain to the north. The Sengar estates stood alongside the larger Baghela kingdom centred on Rewa.
