Rajgarh State

From Warlike




The Kingdom of Rajgarh also known as Rajgarh State was a princely state in present-day India, named after its capital Rajgarh, Madhya Pradesh. It was part of the colonial Bhopal Agency of the Central India Agency during the British Raj. It lay in the region of Malwa known as Umathwara after the ruling Umath clan of Rajputs, a branch of the Paramara dynasty. The neighbouring Narsinghgarh State was ruled by a cadet branch of this family, after being partitioned in 1681. The Rajgarh State had an area of 2,492 km² and a population of 88,376 in 1901.
