Nihal Singh of Bharatpur
This article does not cite any sources. (October 2014) |
Nihal Singh also known as Naval Singh (2 October, 1756 - 11 August 1881) was the fourth son of Suraj Mal and Regent of his nephew Keshri Singh, from 11 April 1769 to his death. He was appointed as a Regent king for Bharatpur, since his older brother Ratansingh died and Ratansingh's sone Keshri Singh was only 2 and 1/2 years old. However Keshri Singh died in chicken pox after few years. After Keshri Singh's death Naval Singh became the king of Bharatpur. Some people[who?] believe that he died on 11 August 1775, from wounds received in battle against the Maratha; but this is not true, Naval Singh ruled Bharatpur very efficiently, but later on he renounced his kingdom and became saint at Ram Galolaji's Asharam in Ayodhya.[citation needed]
