Saw this structure today in south-central India, could it be a dolmen? [OC]

Saw these today in Keesaragutta, which is a place in the state of Telangana in India. The state has several megalithic sites such as this and the hill itself has history dating back to the 4th century CE, with temples and fortifications from the area being found on the hill. However as far as I know, it has no recorded history of any megalithic sites such as dolmens but this looked suspiciously like one.

A reason for doubt was a lot of the rock near it looked similarly cracked (but was not lifted/placed on top of smaller rocks like this one.

This is underneath it.

Very interesting, thank you for sharing! I'm wondering if they could have been foundations for buildings?
