This wooden chowki was recorded in Shri Dauji Dayal Mandir of Deeghot village. It was donated by a devotee and was placed in front of the figures. A copper vessel and brass hand bell were kept on it, to be used during the prayers. When offerings of food or flowers are made, these are placed on the chowki too.
