    Excerpt:

    Rani Karnavati is said to have orchestrated a number of
    hydraulic constructions, the most noted of which was an
    irrigation system that prevented the water from sinking
    underground as it exited the hill into the gravels
    leading to the valleys. This allowed agricultural
    development that allowed an efflorescence of several
    towns in the region.

    This consequently fed a local Hindu revival which was
    mainly seen in the form of various productions of certain
    tantrika, legal, and medical texts under the patronage of
    this dynasty. Monuments erected by her still exist in
    Dehradun District at Nawada, she is also credited with the
    construction of the Rajpur Canal, the earliest of all the
    Dun canals, which starts from the Rispana River and
    brings its waters till the city of Dehradun. Rispana
    River is one of the tributaries of Song River that drains
    the central and eastern part of the Doon Valley.
