Many in Udaipur see Lakshyaraj Singh as rightful titular head of erstwhile royal family of Mewar, while others say Vishvaraj Singh, who is also a BJP MLA, as the ‘true Maharana’.
Rather than seeing his new role as a burden, Lakshyaraj says in an exclusive interview that it was a challenge–one that requires commitment to principles, even as the world changes.
Today, works from the Mewar school such as manuscript illustrations, portraits and tamasha paintings are housed in museums and private collections across the world, including the City Palace Museum and the Government Museum in Udaipur.
BJP’s Vishwaraj Singh Mewar, a member of erstwhile Mewar royal family who fought the election on his lineage, defeated outgoing speaker Joshi by 7,504 votes.
