Samadhi is a monument built in memory of HH Maharajah Sri Ram Chandra Bhanj Deo, his wife Maharani Laxmi Kumari Devi, and their daughter Sri Pad Manjari Devi. These three individuals tragically lost their lives to the smallpox epidemic over a century ago. This devastating event prompted the king to recognize the importance of healthcare and invest in its development across the state.
The samadhi serves as a solemn tribute to their memory and the impact they had on healthcare initiatives. The monument stands as a reminder of the king’s commitment to improving the well-being of his people. It symbolizes the enduring legacy of Maharajah Sri Ram Chandra Bhanj Deo and his dedication to ensuring the health and prosperity of his subjects.
The samadhi is a significant historical landmark that not only commemorates the lives lost but also represents the progress made in healthcare since then. It serves as a reminder of the importance of proactive measures in preventing and combating epidemics.
