Rampura is a small town in the Aravalli Range, Rampura has experienced a martial past. Many battles were fought here between the Rajputs, Marathas, Mughals and British forces. It is located on the west side of the Chambal River. Its location, connecting Malwa with Rajputana through the Mukundara Pass, made Rampura strategically important to all those with territorial ambitions and consequently a political shuttle cock.
Rampura also housed hundreds of families of Nandwana community. These families were very rich, but due to some conflict with Chandrawat rulers, all families evicted the Rampura within a night.As an evidence, there are many old houses debris, near by Baddaa talaab.This community's goddess Vankul maataa temple is still situated near badaa taalab.Still many people from community visit the temple to worship the goddess.
