History
Bagru was the site of the Battle of Bagru in August 1748, a significant conflict between the forces of Ishwari Singh of Jaipur and Madho Singh I, supported by Maratha and other Rajput allies. This battle had a considerable impact on the political landscape of Rajasthan during that period. The Thakur of Bagru, one of the foremost nobles of Jaipur, belonged to the Rajawat branch of the Chaturbhujot Rajputs, a branch of the Kachwaha Rajputs.
