The Agroha Dham is built on the ancient site of Agroha, believed to be the capital of Maharaja Agrasen's kingdom. According to legend, Maharaja Agrasen, a Suryavanshi Kshatriya king, established a welfare state based on the principle of 'one brick, one rupee,' where each new resident was given a brick and a rupee to start their life. This philosophy promoted prosperity and equality. The modern Agroha Dham was established to revive and celebrate this legacy. The complex was built to honor Maharaja Agrasen and Goddess Lakshmi, symbolizing prosperity and well-being. The site serves as a reminder of the values of compassion, community, and social responsibility that Maharaja Agrasen championed.
