Rawal of Samode, Chief Minister of Jaipur, Regent of Jaipur
Bairi Sal was the Rawal of Samode, Prime Minister of Jaipur from 1818 to 1823 and regent of Jaipur from 1836 until his death in 1838.
Biography
He was the principal signatory representing Jagat Singh, the Maharaja of Jaipur, in the 1818 treaty that established Jaipur as a protectorate of the East India Company. Jagat Singh left no heir at the time of his death in 1818. However, several months later, his wife, Bhatianiji, declared that she was eight months pregnant. To verify the authenticity of the announcement, the principal nobles of Jaipur, led by Bairi Sal, sought confirmation from the senior women of the zenana, who affirmed the pregnancy. When Bhatianiji gave birth to a son, he was recognized as the heir to the throne by both the nobles and the British Government. When Jai Singh III was installed as the Maharaja of Jaipur, David Ochterlony established a regency council with Bhatianiji as its head, while Bairi Sal was appointed as the Prime Minister (Diwan) of Jaipur. During his tenure as Prime Minister, he was caught in the conflict between the Bhatianiji and the East India Company. In 1823, Bhatianiji removed him from his position and replaced him with Jhoota Ram. At that time, the British promised to protect him from any retribution from the zenana..
