BHARAT PUR                                                             17  GUN  SALUTE  STATE

Bharatpur State, also known as Bharatpore State, presently in Rajasthan State  was a Hindu princely state in India. Bharatpur State was formerly Eastern Rajputana State .It was ruled by a Hindu Jat dynasty. Lying between 26* 43’ and 27*5’ North and 77*46’ East . area of the State was 5123 Sq. Km. and the population was 486954 in 1931. Privy purse of the state was Rs 502000 at the time of accession on 7 April 1949.

The descendants of Khanu Chand became leaders of the Jat caste and rose to considerable power during the Mughal decline in the late seventeenth century. Looking at their valor, Rajput king of Jaipur granted him Bharatpur as their State. At the end of the 17th century, Jat Baija, Zamindar of the village of Sansani, took advantage of the weakness of the Mughal Empire to enlarge his territory. His descendents, Churaman Singh and Badan Singh, continued the expansion, the latter being the founder of the fortress of Bharatpur in 1724.
