Dholpur state

The state was merged into the Union of India in April 1949 and Udai Bhan Singh was the last Maharaj-Rana of Dholpur.

To create a buffer between the Kingdom of Bikaner and the Marathas, who often allied against them, the British supported the Jats led by Rana Kirat Singh.

As part of an agreement, Rana Kirat Singh was given control of Dholpur, while the British took over Gohad.

Thus, Dholpur State was formed, and Rana Kirat Singh was declared its ruler in 1805.
