If you enter into the Kuldhara village you can see the houses are almost in the same condition as they were left behind by their inhabitants. If you climb up the steps of one such home can see the entire expansion of the village. When the sun sets across the sand dunes Jaisalmer the gates of Kuldhara village are closed by the local of the neighboring villages.Once home to rich Paliwal brahmins, the haunted village was abandoned by the inhabitants because of the atrocities committed by a powerful minister of the Jaisalmer, Salim Singh.

But the villages and the girl's father were against it. The village representatives arranged a meeting with the Kuldhara village peoples and they decided that they suffered enough of the minister bad things so they decided to  pack up and move to somewhere else. Before leaving the place the girl's father curses the minister that this place shall remain inhabitant.That stays true totill date because the town is inhabitant still.
