The nearest railway station is Vidisha Railway Station (BHS) — the city’s main railhead. The local Vidisha bus stand / intercity bus services on the town roads serve Vaishali Nagar and Reetha Fatak Road for onward road connections. The nearest major airport is Raja Bhoj (Bhopal) Airport, approximately 60–70 km from Vidisha (travel time ~1.5–2 hours by road depending on traffic).
Sultani Masjid, given at Reetha Fatak Road, behind Unique Career School, Vaishali Nagar, Vidisha, appears to be a neighbourhood/mohalla mosque serving the local Muslim community of Vaishali Nagar and nearby lanes. I could not find any authoritative published history, waqf record, news article, or heritage listing that documents a formal founding date, named patron, or an architectural study for a “Sultani Masjid” at that exact address — it’s not showing up in major online mosque directories for Vidisha. That said, mosques with names like “Sultani” (or similar spellings such as Sultaniya/Sultaniyah) are commonly local, community-built masjids: typically founded by families or a small committee to provide daily prayers, Friday (jumʿah) services, Qur’an classes and modest community functions. If this is such a mosque, it’s likely maintained by local devotees, with any detailed history preserved orally by caretakers or in local waqf/municipal records rather than online. If you need a firm historical record (founder / year), the most reliable next steps would be to ask the mosque caretakers, check Vidisha municipal/waqf office records, or look up local Urdu/Hindi newspaper archives — those sources often hold the details that aren’t digitized.
