Ransi Gaon is a village located in the Bilara tehsil of Jodhpur District, in the Indian state of Rajasthan.[1] Stud farms are present there.

It is known for the Marwari horse, and the village conducts a fair for it each year.[2]

The village is rich in limestone. The village has a population of 8,488.[3] Ransi Gaon has its own gram panchayat.

The village is flanked by an old, supposedly haunted stepwell, known as 'Bhuto Ki Bawri'.[4]

History

According to legend, Jai Singh, after winning a wrestling match with a ghost near Natiyali Nadi near the village, tied him in chains and built a palace for himself along with a well. Due to a broken promise between the ghost and the Thakur, a part of the well and the two-story palace remained incomplete. This well was built with 16 poles by carving artwork on Lal Ghat stone.
