The younger brother of Pratap Singh II, Ari Singh II was assassinated on 9 March 1773.

Reign[]

He reigned from 1762 to 1772. In his reign Marathas were weakened in India, but Mahadaji Scindia restored Maratha power in the North. He formed an alliance with Maratha against the Mughal Empire. He was also unable to pay his Maratha mercenaries who ravaged his country later.
