Raja Ram (ruled 1670–1688) was the first Jat leader, who organised a rebellion against Aurangzeb. He was the chieftain of Sinsini. Before Rajaram the Jats were organised by different village heads dotted around Agra, Mathura and the Jamuna river. To avenge the death of Gokula, Rajaram looted Akbar's tomb and dragged Akbar's bones and burned them with the help of Jat Zamindars of Braj.[1][page needed] Rajaram was killed by a rival Jat clan. After his death his brother Churaman and son Rupa continued the struggle against Aurangzeb. However the infighting amongst the Jats led to their defeat against Bishan Singh of Amber.[2]
