[edit]History
[edit]Origins and early history
[edit]According to family tradition and regional genealogical records, the Amethi estate was founded in 966 AD by Raja Sodh Dev, a Kachhwaha Rajput from Narwargarh. He was the father of Dulha Rai, the founder of the Kachhwaha dynasty of Amber (later Jaipur), making, Sodh Dev a shared lineal ancestor of both the Amethi and Jaipur royal houses. Sodh Dev migrated into the Awadh region and displaced the local Bhar chieftains. His descendants in Amethi later became known as the Bandhalgoti clan. According to the Ain-i-Akbari, the region was a recognized pargana in the sarkar of Lucknow during the reign of Emperor Akbar.
18th and 19th centuries
[edit]In 1743, Raja Gurdatt Singh came into conflict with the Nawab of Awadh, Safdar Jang. After a siege at Raipur, the capital was moved to Ram Nagar. By the mid-19th century, the estate had grown significantly. During the Indian Rebellion of 1857, Raja Madho Singh initially resisted British forces, leading to the destruction of the Amethi fort in 1858.
British Raj and modern era
[edit]Under British rule, Amethi was classified as a premier taluqdari estate in the Sultanpur district of Oudh. At the turn of the 20th century, the estate comprised 314 villages. Following Indian independence in 1947 and the passing of the Zamindari Abolition Act, the princely privileges were abolished.
