Kishangarh

Kishangarh is a city and a Municipal Council in Ajmer district in the Indian state of Rajasthan.[1] Kishangarh was the capital of the eponymous princely state during the British Raj, which was located in the Rajputana Agency.[3] Maharaja Madan Singh ascended the throne in 1900 at the age of sixteen,[4] at a time when the state was reeling from the impact of a devastating drought.The administration under him and his diwan was widely deemed worthy of approbation; irrigation from tanks and wells was extended and factories for ginning and pressing cotton were started.[4] A social reform movement for discouraging excessive expenditure on marriages made remarkable impact during his reign.
