It was a well-organised city with palaces, mosque, pillared hall, water tank. An interesting fact is that the Ashokan Pillar which was 13.1 metres feet high made of polished sandstone was brought to Delhi from Meerut on the order of Feroz Shah and was fixed on the three tiered corridors structure near the mosque inside the fort.
