Pethapur State ((ヒンディー語:पेथापुर)) was a small princely state belonging to the Mahi Kantha Agency of the Bombay Presidency during the era of the British Raj.〔(Imperial Gazetteer of India, v. 20, p. 127. )〕 It was centered on Pethapur village, in present-day Gandhinagar district of Gujarat State,〔(Pethapur S.O Post Office – Gandhinagar, Gujarat )〕 a place renowned for block-making.〔(Block Making at Pethapur Village )〕 == History == In the 13th century King Pethasinh of Pethapur ruled over Shertha town. After the death of Pethasinh, the Gujarat Sultanate of Patan used this land as battle ground. Sultan Ahmed Shah decided to move his capital from Patan to a new city, and built Ahmedabad. In 1960, Bombay state was split in two different states, Gujarat and Maharashtra. Ahmedabad became capital of Gujarat, and a new capital city was to be built on land which was once part of Pethapur state.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Information about History of Gandhinagar City – Gujarat )〕 The state was ruled by the Baghela dynasty of Rajputs.〔(Rajput Provinces of India – Pethapur (Princely State) )〕 Rawal Virajmal, son of Rao Kiratsinghji of Idar State, was succeeded on 12 April 1882 by his son Rawal Dipsinhji Sheosinhji, born in 1863. On 1 February 1940 Pethapur State became the first petty princely state to be subject to the Attachment Scheme, being integrated with Baroda State.〔McLeod, John; ''Sovereignty, power, control: politics in the States of Western India, 1916-1947;'' Leiden u.a. 1999; ISBN 90-04-11343-6; p. 160〕 The last ruler was Shri Fateh Singh, born 3 October 1895 who nominally ruled till Indian independence while the process for joining India was active.
