=== Folklore ===
Once [[Godara (clan)|Godara]] king had sent his messenger to King "''Chokha Singh Sihag''" of [[Jangladesh]] to irritate king and provoke him to fight. So, that messenger went to [[Devasar]] village near ''Pallu''. There is a pond in Devasar village where Chokha Singh ji used to take bath and meditated on its shore. Chokha Singh was meditating when that messenger reached him. The messenger reached him and said," I am a messenger of [[Godara (clan)|Godara]]s, give me some offerings". Chokha Singh replied, " If you want to have food, it will be prepared soon but I don't give offerings." As the messenger was ordered to say to Chokha Singh, he said,"What type of king you are?" On this, Chokha Singh took a handful of water and splashed it onto the messenger. Chokha Singh said," Take this and go away". But the messenger was astonished on seeing that the water had turned into gold [[Ashrafi]]s. When the messenger returned to [[Godara (clan)|Godara]] king, he told them:-
