Manoharsinhji Pradyumansinhji
Manoharsinhji Pradyumansinhji (born 18 November 1935), previously the 15th Thakore Saheb of Rajkot, is a former Indian nobleman and politician.
The oldest son of Pradyumansinhji Lakhajirajsinhji, the 12th Thakore Saheb, Manoharsinhji was born at the Ranjit Villas Palace in Rajkot, and educated at Rajkumar College. He married Mankumari Devi Sahiba, the second daughter of Tej Singh Prabhakar, Maharaja of Alwar, in 1949, and had one son and three daughters.〔(RAJKOT 3 ) – Royal Ark. Retrieved 12 December 2012.〕
Like his father and grandfather (the 12th Thakore Saheb), Manoharsinhji was a keen cricketer, and made his debut for Saurashtra against Gujarat in the 1955–56 Ranji Trophy, scoring 59 runs in his first innings.〔(Saurashtra v Gujarat ), Ranji Trophy 1955/56 (West Zone) – CricketArchive. Retrieved 12 December 2012.〕 Manoharsinhji served as captain of the team from the 1957–58 season onwards, and was a regular in the team until his retirement after the 1963–64 season. Usually playing as a top order batsman, his highest first-class score (and only century) was an innings of 144 runs against Gujarat in December 1957.〔(Gujarat v Saurashtra ), Ranji Trophy 1957/58 (West Zone) – CricketArchive. Retrieved 12 December 2012.〕 Overall, Manoharsinhji played 14 first-class matches, scoring 614 runs at an average of 29.23.〔(Thakore Saheb of Rajkot ) – CricketArchive. Retrieved 12 December 2012.〕
Standing for the Indian National Congress in the constituency of Rajkot, Manoharsinhji was elected to the Gujarat Legislative Assembly in 1967, and served until 1971. Upon the death of his father in November 1973, he acceded to the title of Thakore Saheb.〔(Rajkot (Princely State) ) – Indian Rajputs. Retrieved 12 December 2012.〕 The title had afforded no extra powers or privileges since Indian independence in 1947, and serves merely as a courtesy, although property attached to the title remains with the Thakore Saheb. Manoharsinhji served two further terms as a member of the Gujarat Legislative Assembly for the Rajkot (I) constituency–from 1980 to 1985 and 1990 to 1995—and occupied a number of positions in cabinet, including Minister for Finance, Minister for Youth Services, and Minister for Health.〔(Shri Manoharsinh Jadeja ) – Rajkot City Guide. Retrieved 12 December 2012.〕 From 1998, he has served as a vice-president of the Gujarat Pradesh Congress Committee, the state division of the Indian National Congress.〔 Politically, Manoharsinhji is generally known under the name "Manoharsinh Jadeja", deriving from his family's dynastic name.〔(Manoharsinh ends ''sanyas'' after son denied BJP ticket ) – ''Times of India''.
