Chand Singh of Sikar

[1] When his father was severely wounded in 1748 during the Battle of Bagru, he traveled to Jaipur to care for him.

[3] To prevent any conflict, he went to Sikar and began residing peacefully with his eldest brother, Samrath Singh.

[1] Their absence from Fatehpur provided an opportunity for the Qaimkhanis to seize control of the city.

[2] Their party arrived at Sikar in the middle of the night and asked Dip Chand, the qiladar, to open the fort gates so they could rest for a few hours.

[2] Once the gates were opened, they launched a surprise attack which caught the fort's occupants off guard.

[3] One of the first actions he took after assuming the throne was to remove the name of Samrath Singh and his descendants from the family records due to his involvement in the killing of his stepbrothers.
