Description and History

Bhankrota is known for its residential and student living center. There are many restaurants in the locality, including a small market connected to each block of the larger town that also provides for a wonderful shopping experience. Bhankrota is approximately 15  km from the Jaipur Junction railway station. It is a very lively locality due to the presence of the national highway which connects major cities of India like Delhi, Jaipur, Ahmedabad, and Mumbai.

At Bhankrota bus stand, for supplying drinking water to the locality, an old water tank was inaugurated by the Queen of Britain, Elizabeth II on 22 January 1961, the exact day when Bhankrota was electrified.

The rapid urbanization of Jaipur has led to mushrooming of residential societies all over the city, noted societies are now coming out of Jaisinghpura, 3  km away from Bhankrota which is also resident to many Nepalese and NRIs. There are several migrants^{[clarification needed]} from Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh and Kerala near the Keshopura locality.
