Ganesh Pol or the Ganesh Gate provides access to the
inner and private parts of the palace. Covered with frescoes,
it was constructed on the orders of Mirza Raja Jai Singh
(1621-57 A.D.),

Lord Ganesh is the deity who, it is believed, removes
obstructions likely to come in the way of human beings in
their everyday life. His likeness is therefore traditionally
painted or placed over the main entry into a building.
Suhag Mandir is situated over the Ganesh Pol. It was
used as a chamber by the royal ladies to witness, through
lattice screens, the state functions held below in the Diwan-i-am.
