The Historic place of War between Doti Kingdom and Nepali (Gorkhali) Ruler during period of Gorkha Expansion at 1790, according to the history of Nepal, is NARI-DANG which is at the bank of Seti River and the 'Dumrakot' was the base of Doti Kingdom for fighting against Gorkhali. The toughest resistance which the 'Shah Dynasty' of from 'Gorkha' got in Nepal was from the 'Rainkas' (Raja's) of the Doti Kingdom.
Although Doti was defeated in battle by Gurkhs of Nepal and became the part of Nepal; The Gorkha rulers destroyed the historical places of Doti and hide its brave history for a very long while, not only even that no Dotyali people were given priority in any types of national interest, they are excluded from the Government jobs and other state facilities. Around 1950 few Dotyalis were on the list of national identity as HERO; it is because of their daring jobs to the nation. They are Martys Dashrath Chand, Martys Bhim Dutta Pant and the internationally renowned Dr. K. I. Singh, the revolutionary who later became the Prime Minister of Nepal.
