New Delhi: Amid the nationwide celebration of the consecration ceremony of Ram Lalla’s idol at Ayodhya’s Ram Temple, the Royal Family of Jaipur, known as ‘The Suryavanshi Rajputs,’ has claimed historic connection with Lord Rama and asserted the divine connection through their lineage chart or Vanshavali.
Representing the family at the ‘Pran Pratishtha’ ceremony, H.H. Maharaja Sawai Padmanabh Singh of Jaipur, the 309th generation in the lineage, shared the official Vanshawali and a historic map of Ayodhya dating back to the 18th century. This cloth map, purchased by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II from a saint, has been preserved through generations.
Historians, including Col. James Todd, in his book ‘Annals and Antiquities of Rajasthan,’ highlight the traditions and customs of the Mewar royal family as evidence of their lineage from Lord Ram.
According to Todd, Lord Ram’s capital was Ayodhya, and his descendants, including Luv, established the Luvkote (Lahore).
Eventually, they migrated to Mewar, founding the Sisodia dynasty with Chittor as their initial capital, later moving to Udaipur. The sun symbolizes the Mewar royal family, known as devotees of Lord Shiva, worshiping Eklingnath, as per a report in News18.
