TARNOLI.
Tarnoli is a village in Darvha tahsil along the road to Satefal with a population of 1,831 according to the 1961 Census. It is 16.09 km (about 10 miles) north-west of Darvha. It contains two ruinous temples built more or less in the Hemadpanti style and dedicated to Durgadevi and Chamundadevi respectively. The idols, especially that of Chamundadevi, are proportionately shaped and are fine pieces of architectural curiosity. Strewn around the place are remnants of broken idols and carved stones. On a stone-slab an engraved image of Parshvanatha, the twenty-third Jain Tirthankara is also seen. Tarnoli has a middle school, a medical practitioner and a post office.
