History
British officer Smith wanted to build a factory in Jabalpur for the mass production of weapons. He named it as 'Gun Carriage Factory'.
Whenever he built the wall of the factory, the wall would automatically collapse at night. This continued for several days and the whole work would get ruined at night.
Being troubled by this event, when Smith went to sleep, Lord Hanuman appeared in his dream and told him that there was a statue near the factory, which is buried in the ground.
The next day, Smith started excavation process all around the factory. He found a statue of Lord Hanuman, buried in the ground. He wrapped the statue in a red cloth. On 12 August 1903, the construction of the Paat Baba Mandir began.
After the construction finished, as soon as the work of building the Gun Carriage Factory started, it was finished safely, without any trouble. It is believed that Lord Hanuman helped in the development of the Gun Carriage Factory, and he still protects it.
