Dungarpur

The town of Dungarpur

History of the principality

The leaders of Dungarpur claim to go down from the clan Râjput Sisodia of the Mewâr. At the end of the 12th century, Samant Singh, the oldest son of the râja of the Mewâr had to leave the kingdom in favor of his/her younger brother KUMAR Singh. Samant Singh settled in the country of Bagar and in the centuries which followed its descendants controlled all the area.

Udai Singh de Bagar was killed with the Bataille of Khanua in 1527, fighting within a coalition of Mewâr against the emperor moghol Bâbur. Its territory will be divided between its two sons, becoming two independent states, Prithvi Raj remaining in Dungarpur while his/her brother Jagmal Singh took the head of the Bânsvâra.

The principality integrated the state of the the Rajasthan.
