Dungarpur: A Glorious Century

By Samar Singh

Dungarpur: A Glorious Century is a concise and crisp historical account, from 1846 to 1948, relating to three outstanding rulers of the Guhilot-Ahada dynasty, which ruled the erstwhile Dungarpur State (now Dungarpur District) in south Rajasthan for nearly eight centuries without a break. In terms of antiquity, very few princely states in pre-independent India or elsewhere in the world can match this record. It is also noteworthy that the Guhilot-Ahada dynasty of Dungarpur has been the elder branch of the well-known dynasty of Mewar's Sisodia rulers.

These hundred years were glorious in the long and chequered history of the erstwhile Dungarpur State on account of the extraordinary performance of three rulers - Maharawals Udai Singh, Vijay Singh and Lakshman Singh - who ruled during this period and achieved eminence, each in his own special way. This century-long fascinating story, hitherto untold, is captured in this book.
