Raghubir Singh of Maihar

Following his father's death in 1852, he succeeded him as the Thakur of Maihar.^[2] Owing to his minority, the management of the state was placed under the supervision of a British officer, with a promise that once he reached the age of majority, he would be restored to power.^[4] The officer also instructed him in his duties as a ruler.^[4] He was granted full administrative powers on 2 December 1865.^[5] The British government conferred on him the title of Raja as a hereditary distinction on 2 December 1869.^[5] On 1 January 1877, he was also granted a personal distinction of a nine-gun salute, which was made hereditary in 1878.^[6][7]

He died in Varanasi on 4 March 1908 and was succeeded by his eldest son, Jadubir Singh, as the Raja of Maihar.^[2]
