Semli Raisen

The Semli Raisen Thikana, a noble estate belonging to the Rajawat clan of the Kachwaha dynasty, was established around 1860. The name of the Thikana is a historical amalgamation of natural topography and ancestral legacy, derived from a prominent ancient Semla tree that once stood at the site, combined with the name of its founder, Thakur Rai Singh Ji. The genealogical roots of this family trace back to Mohanpura (which has now been absorbed into Jaipur, Rajasthan), followed by a subsequent migration to Jaisinghpur near Ujjain in Madhya Pradesh, before finally settling and establishing their lordship at Semli Raisen. As Rajawats, the family claims direct patrilineal descent from the royal lineage of Amber, preserving their martial traditions and administrative legacy well into the modern era.
