Dai ka mahal in Mandu. Madhya Pradesh
Dai Ka Mahal in Mandu: ‘Dai’ literally translates into wet nurse. Royalty frequently employed wet nurses across cultures and around the world for various reasons. The wet nurses were entrusted to care for, and nourish young infants while the members of royalty went about their duties and in cases where the biological mother was for some reason unable to breastfeed the child. This position of power is reinstated in the mahals or palaces enjoyed by the wet nurses.
