History

A New palace was built for Rani Jind Kaura in Thapathali durbar complex with four Burg and thus was immediately naming it Charburja Durbar which literally translates as palace with Four Burgs.[1] Charburja Durbar was occupied by her through her stay in Nepal for 11 years and was eventually given as alms to a Brahmin priest before her departure to England.

Due to the palaces strategical location in Thapathali Durbar complex, Jung Bahadur bought this palace back from the Brahmin priest who got it as alms and started using it as a Court House.
