DHAMANGAON Kh.
Dhamangaon Khurd is a small village of 575 inhabitants in Darvha tahsil, lying 20.92 km (about 13 miles) north-west of Darvha. Its only claim to importance lies in the samadhi of one Mungsaji Maharaj, a local saint, which is deeply revered. Built in stone, the actual samadhi is underground and has a small circumambulatory passage. It is protected by a brick compound wall enclosing a large courtyard within. Behind the samadhi is a swing, said to have been used by the saint during his lifetime, on which now a picture frame of his is installed. Nearby is an old palanquin. The village has a primary school, a post and a medical dispensary.
