There are many speculations about the construction of this fort.

Indications are found during excavation. It was built more than two thousand years ago, but strangely enough. That this fort is mentioned only in history. When Mir Sher Mohammad Talpur of Mirpurkhas renovated the fort in the eighteenth century and took up residence in another small fortress 'Mari' in the fort. As you look at the ruins of Fort Rani Kot, one is lost in amazement. Located in the middle of the mountains, the fort was almost like a wall wall. It is difficult to estimate how much it cost to build a limestone fort? The ruins show that this building must have been very great. The fort is located at Kohistan Kether, 32 miles from Sindh railway station San Kotri Dadu Road. The fort had numerous gates. The east gate was called the San Gate. In front of it lies the queen, which is dry most of the year and only flows in the rain. At times it used to be a strong bridge that once had a flow of water. In his book, the great Greek historian Cortes Rufus mentions this fort and describes the event when Alexander the Great besieged the fort. Remember that the local king with his concession had taken refuge in this fort. Alexander the Great went on breaking and killing the fort. The girl in the castle has artifacts of ancient writing on the walls. Looking at the ruins, it is estimated that the material was constructed from somewhere else. Upon entering the fort, there is a stomachable tower at the front that boasts of a local style. Proceed a little further in the Tudayo section are the ruins of a mosque. Some parts of its tower and dome have been martyred. 

The castle is square in shape and covers an area of ​​45 square miles. In the middle of the fort was a small fortified room, located on a high place and was called mine. It turns out that mine is made of mir. Mir was addressing the rulers of Sindh. The fort was rebuilt in 1784/1843 by the mayors of Talpur. The gate to the west of the fort is called the Mohan Gate. In front of it is a vast field. Amri Gate is called the last frontier of Rani Kot Fort. Entering from this gate, the fortresses were closed down. About 40 km from the fort, on the northeast, is the old village of Sindh, Amri, which is still in the form of a small village. Inside the fort lies the small fort of Sehar, where the rulers of the area take refuge, it is very difficult to reach the enemy. Inside the fort there was a large pool of water for storage, which has been broken due to relief time, so the rainwater still accumulates a good amount of water inside it. There was a time when the fort was familiar with the sound of soldiers' heavy boats, but now there is rarely a person who goes there and it is completely deserted. Even when its nights were awake, it was now like daytime. Darkness resides Rani Kot, a fortress in the midst of ancient mountains, is a silent witness to history. If its silence is somehow broken, it must tell stories of the countless glory of the past. It will surely highlight the achievements of the brave men who have surrendered their lives to protect their homeland. It seems to have been renovated in different periods. Many stories about this fort are also known. According to some it is said that during the reign of Hazrat Solomon (peace be upon him) it was the residence of the jinn. It is beyond doubt that Qila RaniKot remained under the care of the Talpur Mir family of Hyderabad in 1784. The family has made great efforts to rebuild the fort. It seems that they had realized the power of the East India Company, so we did not support the Talpur family and after the war of fire with the British on February 17, 1843, they had to withdraw and their power was completely lost. And the fort was taken over by the British.
