Jashpur State was one of the princely states of India during the British Raj. The town of Jashpur was the former state's capital. The rulers were Rajputs of the Chauhan clan.
After the Independence of India, Jashpur State was merged with the princely states of Raigarh, Sakti, Sarangarh and Udaipur to form the Raigarh district of Madhya Pradesh.[1] Now the district of Raigarh is part of Chhattisgarh state.
The area of Jashpur State was ruled by a Dom dynasty at the time of the Mughal Empire. Sujan Rai, a son of the Suryavanshi Raja of Banswada in Rajputana, arrived to the place and saw that the population was not satisfied with their ruler, Raibhan Dom. Sujan led a rebellion, defeated and killed the Dom Raja in battle, and proclaimed himself king.
The Chauhan Rajput rajas of Jashpur accepted the sovereignty of the Bhonsle dynasty of Nagpur State, paying a tribute of 21 buffalos. Before 1818 the Bhonsle placed Jashpur State under the administration of Surguja State. The state became a British protectorate in 1818.[2]
Jashpur was one of the states of the Eastern States Agency. The last ruler of this princely state signed the accession to the Indian Union on 1 January 1948.[3]
The rulers of Jashpur State bore the title of 'Raja'.[4]
