The ASI, State Government and Central Government of India have taken no steps to preserve this fort and as a result, its about 50 temples (10 large) have been destroyed and dug up by local villagers. It’s a untouched and unexplored heritage of Rajasthan which still carries old sculptures (can be seen easily) while roaming around the fort. In early 90’s it use to be a [[Dacoity|dacoit]] area but now it’s safe for unexplored travel. In 2021, under #savetimangarh movement started by Shweta Sharma; new hopes has been raised for Timangarh preservation. | |||
