Anc i ent Per i od, upt o 1200 AD
Rajput clans emerged and held their sway over different parts of Rajasthan from about 700
AD. Before that, Rajasthan was a part of several republics. It was a part of the Mauryan
Empire. Other major republics that dominated this region include the Malavas, Arjunyas,
Yaudhyas, Kushans, Saka Satraps, Guptas and Hunas.

The Rajput clans ascendancy in Indian history was during the period from the eighth to the
twelfth century AD. The Pratihars ruled Rajasthan and most of northern India during 750-
1000 AD. Between 1000-1200 AD, Rajasthan witnessed the struggle for supremacy between
Chalukyas, Parmars and Chauhans.
Medi eval Per i od, 1201 - 1707
Around 1200 AD a part of Rajasthan came under Muslim rulers. The principal centers of their
powers were Nagaur and Ajmer. Ranthanbhor was also under their suzerainty. At the
beginning of the 13th century AD, the most prominent and powerful state of Rajasthan was
Mewar.
Moder n Per i od, 1707 - 1947
Rajasthan had never been united politically until its domination by Mughal Emperor - Akbar.
Akbar created a unified province of Rajasthan. Mughal power started to decline after 1707.
The political disintegration of Rajasthan was caused by the dismemberment of the Mughal
Empire. The Marathas penetrated Rajasthan upon the decline of the Mughal Empire. In 1755
they occupied Ajmer. The beginning of the 19th Century was marked by the onslaught of the
Pindaris.

In 1817-18 the British Government concluded treaties of alliance with almost all the states of
Rajputana. Thus began the British rule over Rajasthan, then called Rajputana.
Post I ndependenc e
The erstwhile Rajputana comprised 19 princely states and two chiefships of Lava and
Kushalgarh and a British administered territory of Ajmer-Merwara. Rajasthan State was

heterogeneous conglomeration of separate political entities with different administrative
systems prevailing in different places. The present State of Rajasthan was formed after a
long process of integration which began on March 17, 1948 and ended on November 1, 1956.
Before integration it was called Rajputana; after integration it came to be known as
Rajasthan. At present there are 33 districts (including the new district of Pratapgarh) in the
State.

ruled Jaipur won Alwar from Mughals and founded a principality of his own. A historic and

History Of District Alwar
Origin of Name
The district is known after its headquarters town of Alwar. There are many theories about the derivation of the name Alwar.
Cunningham holds that the city derived its name from the Salva tribe and was originally Salwapur, then, Salwar, Halawar and
eventually Alwar.According to another school it was known as Aravalpur or the city of Aravali (A hill system dividing Rajasthan
roughly into third and two-thirds).Some others hold that city is named after Alaval Khan Mewati. A research conducted during
the reign of Maharaja Jey Singh of Alwar revealed that Maharaja Alaghraj, second son of Maharaja Kakil of Amer (old seat of
Jaipur state) ruled the area in the eleventh century and his territory extended upto the present city of Alwar. He founded the city
of Alpur in 1106 Vikrami samvat(1049 A.D.) after his own name which eventually became Alwar. It was formerly spelt as Ulwar
but in the reign of Jey Singh the spelling was changed to Alwar.
Location
The district is situated in the north-east of Rajasthan between 27o4' and 28o4' north Latitudes and 76o7' and 77o13' east
Longitude. Its greatest length from south to north is about 137 K.M. and greatest breadth from east to west about 110 K.M.
It is bounded on the north and north-east by Gurgaon (of Haryana) and Bharatpur district and on the north-west by
Mahendragarh district of Haryana, on the south-west by Jaipur and on the south by Sawai- Madhopur and Jaipur districts.
History
The Alwar state may be said to have been formed as a separate, independent state when Rao Pratap Singh, its founder, first
raised his standard over the Alwar Fort on November 25th 1775.During his rule the then districts of Thanagazi, Rajgarh,
Malakhera, Ajabgharh, Baldeogarh, Kankwari, Alwar, Ramgarh and Lachhmangarh, and areas around Behror and Bansur, were
finally integrated to form the State. As the State was being consolidated, naturally, no definite administrative machinery could
have come into being. At the time, the states revenue was between six to seven lakhs of rupees per annum.
The next ruler Maharao Raja Bakhtawar Singh(1791-1815) also devoted himself to the work of extension and consolidation
of the terriotory of the State. He was successful in integrating the pargannahs of Ismailpur and Mandawar and the talukas of
Darbarpur, Rutai, Nimrana, Mandhan, Beejawar and Kakoma in the Alwar State. Maharao Raja Bakhtawar Singh rendered
valuable services to Lord Lake, during the latter's campaign against Marathas, in the battle of Laswari, in Alwar territory when
the State troopes assisted him in finally breaking the Marathas and Jat powers.
As a result, in 1803, the First Treaty of Offensive and Defensive Alliance was forged between Alwar State and the East
India Company. Thus, Alwar was the first princely State in India to enter into Treaty Relations with the East India Company.
But in his time also, the State Administration was very imprefect and cases of loot and dacoity, even in broad day light, were not
infrequent. The State was borrowing money from outside as its finances were poor and mismanaged. Most of the land revenue
was use to pay back the loans and, at times, the farmeres were put to hardship The State was heavily indebted when the next
ruler Maharao Viney Singh acceeded to the throne.
Maharao Raja Viney Singh (1815-1857) suppressed the social anarchy and was to a great extent, successful in stabilising
the general conditions in the State. It was in his time that the Alwar State administration began to take shape. According to the
Imperial Gazetter of India, " The Government had previously been carried on without any system. But with the aid of certain
Musalmans introduced from Delhi and appointed ministers in 1838, great changes were made. The land revenue began to be
collected in cash instead of kind and civil and criminal courts were established."
Maharao Raja Viney Singh died in 1857 and was succeeded by his son Sheodan Singh (1857-1874). He was then a boy of
twelve. He at once fell under the influence of the Mohammedan Dewans of Delhi. Their proceedings excited an insurrection
of the Rajputs in 1858, in which several of the Dewan's followers were killed and the ministers themselves were
expelled from the State. Captain Nixon, the Political agent of Bharatpur, was at once despatched to Alwar who
formed a Council of Regency. A Panchayat was formed with three members to administer the State but it could not succeed.
Captain Impey came to Alwar as the next Political Agent in November, 1858. His tenure of that office continued till the
end of 1863, during which he succeeded in re-organising every branch of the administartion. The system of fixed cash
assessment was introduced. The annual revenue of the State was fixed at Rs. 14,29,425 and work was started on a three years
settlement for the State. After the completion of this settlement, Major Impey started work on the ten year settlement in the
State and the annual revenue was fixed at Rs. 17,19,875.
Maharao Raja Sheodan Singh assumed ruling powers on 14th September,1863 and soon after, the agency was
abolished. But the administration soon fell back into the hands of old Dewans who still had links with the ruler. In 1870, the
disbanding of the Rajput cavalry and the wholesale confiscation of Jagir, grants the extravagance of the chief and his
Mohammedan sympathisers, brought about a general uprising of the Rajputs with the result that the British government had
again to interfere. Captain Blair, the then Political Agent for the Eastern States tried to bring about a reconciliation but failed.
Major Cadell was then appointed the Political Agent in 1867 and,with the sanction of the Government of India, a council of
Management was formed with the Political Agent as President, the Maharao Raja having a seat in the Board. Personnel of
administration was changed and the whole administartion was cleaned. A new Department of Engineering was started.
Tehsildars were entrusted with more civil and criminal powers. They were empowered to impose fines upto Rs. 20 and a month's
imprisonment. In 1871, the Kotwali was established for the security of the city. The next year work on the 16 year settlement
began. Tax on the british rupee was abolished and Rao-Shai coins were put out of circulation. British copper coins were
introduced in the State in 1873 and length and weight measures of yard and seer were also brought into use. Postal
management was improved and the letters from Tehsils which previously, took three daysto reach the capital, now came within
twelve hours. An independent department called `Appeals' was brought into being for hearing appeals against decisions of lower
courts. The railway line from Delhi to Bandikuipassing through Alwar, was laid in 1874.
Mangal Singh the next ruler (1874-1892), was also a minor when he succeeded to the throne of Alwar State and the State
continued to be administered by the Political Agent and the Council of Regency till December, 1877 when he was invested with
ruling powers. The hereditary title of Maharaja was bestowed on him in the year 1889. In 1877, he had entered into the
contract with the British Government under the Native Coinage Act of 1876 according to which silver coins bearing the Alwar
device were to be supplied by the Calcutta Mint. The troops in the State were re-organised in November,1888 under the
guidance of Colonel (then Major) O.Moore Creagh, whose services had specially been lent for the purpose by the Government of
India. The staff office was established in November, 1888 and Maharaja Mangal Singh himself supervised the re-organisation of
military forces.
On his death in 1892, his only son,Jey Singh succeeded him. And it was in the times of Jey Singh that Alwar State gained
name. Himself an able man, Maharaja Jey Singh turned Alwar into a very well administered State. He was a minor at the time of
succession and hence the State administration was carried on by a council, called the State Council, acting under the general
supervision of the Political Agent . The State Council was composed of four members and all the business of the administration
was carried on by the members jointly under the advice and guidance of the Political Agent for the time being. The State
Council exercised powers of a High Court, subject to the revising authority of the Political Agent. Revenue and Judicial appeals
and cases were disposed off by the Council. The State administration was taking shape.
During the rein of Jey Singh, the whole state was divided into twelve administrative units called Tahsils, each under the
governing authority of a Tahsildar. Following is the table showing the names of the Tahsils, areas and populcation of each :

The joy of being aloft in the wind and the thrill of defying the elements is what
parasailing and ballooning are all about. Unlike other aerosports, in these, once off the
ground, the sportsman is on his own. Since the skies are an element foreign to us, it
would be judicious to take all precautions before indulging in the joy afforded by the
sports. Responsibility for the safety for the sportsman depends to a large extent on the
team helping out in this sport. Ballooning on other hand,permits the balloonist to soar
high in the sky and drift over the picturesque terrain.

tourist. Dressed almost always in traditional turbans and dhotis,the old family retainers
cater to the same kind of care and hospitality to the tourists as they do to their personal
guests.In most of these havelies,the host himself is always around to ensure that the
guest is comfortable and well looked after. What these palaces lack by way of five-star
facilities they more than make up by the personalized service that they extend. The

Pai nt i ngs of Raj ast han
Rajasthan's role in the development of Indian art has been very important. The
decoration of dwellings and other household objects was but one aspect of the
creative genius of the Rajasthani - the world of miniature paintings is perhaps the
most fascinating and the distinctive styles that have existed here are renowned
the world over. From the 16th century onwards there flourished different schools
of paintings like the Mewar school, the Bundi-Kota kalam, the Jaipur, Bikaner,
Kishengarh and Marwar schools.
