Chhatra

A gift of land is held to be complete in all its parts, when accompanied by a couch shell, a seat of honor, a chhatra, a good horse and a good carriage.

All the emblems of sovereignty including the chhatra were in place on Father's elephant and war was resumed.

Originally mounted on a circular drum was the dome or the hemispherical super structure crowned by a railed harmika and a chhatra.
