Which says that the monument is the wedding court of the jogaidevi, whose temple is situated nearby. It is said that the wedding was planned to take place in this mandap but couldn't take place due to some super natural reasons and the elephants and everything inside it turned to stone. That is why the name 'Jogai Mandap' is given to it.

But it was believed to have been shut down by the authorities.
