==History==<br />
The erstwhile Princely State of Chhota Udaipur was founded in 1743 by Rawal Udeysinhji, a descendant of [[Patai Rawal]] of [[Champaner]].{{Citation needed|date=August 2019}}<br />
<br />
This state was an A class state with a 11 Gun salute under the [[Rewa Kantha Agency]] and merged with the [[Dominion of India|Union of India]] on 10 March 1948. The state emerged as an A Class state mainly because of the erstwhile ruler HH. Maharaja Maharawal Shri Fateh Sinh Ji Chauhan who was also known as the people's Maharaja. Before him, the state was a second class state with 9 Gun Salutes. Maharawal Shri Fatehsinh ji made a lot of developments in the state of Chhota Udepur and quickly rose to being an A class state. His great grandson HH Aishwarya Pratap singh Chauhan is the present ruler of Chhota Udaipur but he is the youngest son of Late Maharaja Shri Virendra Pratap Sinh ji.<br />
