Rajasthan Foundation Day History
The existence of Rajasthan dates back to prehistoric times. From time to time, there has been the rule of Chauhan, Mewar, Gehlot dynasty. Mewar, Marwar, Jaipur, Bundi, Kota, Bharatpur and Alwar used to be major princely states. All these princely states accepted the subjugation of British rule. The kings obtained concessions for themselves but there was discontent among the people. After the revolt of 1857, people united under Mahatma Gandhi's leadership and contributed to the freedom struggle. After Independence, when the princely states started to merge, then the greater princely states like Bikaner, Jaipur, Jodhpur and Jaisalmer combined to form Greater Rajasthan. The state of Rajasthan officially came into existence in 1958. At that time the princely states of Ajmer, Abu Road Taluka and Sunal Tappa also merged into Rajasthan.
