Name and history
Bakshi Ka Talab is named after its large tank built by Bakhshi Tipur Chand, who was paymaster for Nasir-ud-Din Haidar Shah in the first half of the 19th century.[4] This structure was built with flights of stairs descending to the water's surface on all four sides, and four towers marking the corners.[4] A temple to Banke Bihari was built facing the main road, and next to it, Bakhshi Tipur Chand had a mansion built, along with a walled garden.[4] By the turn of the 20th century, the complex had fallen into ruin.[4] Around that time, Bakshi Ka Talab was described as being within the land belonging to Rudahi village, to the west.[4] It had a train station on the Lucknow–Bareilly Railway, a post office, and a village school.[4]
