India

Following the Partition of India in 1947, the majority of princely states in the subcontinent asceded to either the Dominion of Pakistan or the Union of India. Official recognition of hereditary royal entitlements and accompanying privy purses were abolished in the Republic of India through a constitutional amendment on 28 December 1971. Royal titles in Pakistan were abolished in January 1972. In many cases, members of the former ruling families of princely states retain a considerable degree of social prestige, and in some instances political influence, in their communities. Many leaders are often still referred to by their claimed titles.

  68. The last heir to the title Maharaja of the Sikh Raj died without issue in 1926. Beant Singh is the current head of the family. However, since he is not directly descended from the empire's founder, Ranjit Singh, he can only claim the title of "Sardar", which was the title used by their common ancestor. This title has no connection with the former state.
  69. The Sandhu are a clan of the Jats. The current line of claimants primarily belongs to the Sandhawalia clan.
  70. Also known as Nahan after its capital.
  71. The last titular Maharaja of Sirmur died in 1964 leaving no apparent heir. The current claimant to the throne was adopted into the family by the late maharaja’s widow. However, neither the adoption nor the claim to inheritance were recognised by the Indian government, as it failed to meet the necessary requirements dictated by family and religious customs. Because the adoption has not been legally recognised, his right to make a claim is therefore disputed.
  72. Following a succession dispute in 1863, the former ruling family of Surat was divided into two main branches: a senior branch (first row) and a junior branch (second row). Both branches may claim to be heirs to the Nawab of Surat, a title which ceased to be legally recognised by the government in 1842.

Indonesia

  1. ^ An Atoni dynasty.
  2. The royal family of Amarasi was originally an Atoni dynasty. However, the current lineage (the Koroh family) is descended from the Dj'awa dynasty of Savu.
  3. Known within his community as "Gia".
  4. The present sultan, born in 1997, is a minor. His grand uncle, Tengku Hamdi, currently acts as regent.
  5. ^ A branch of the Cirebon dynasty. In 1662, the sultanate of Cirebon was divided between three branches of the ruling dynasty: (in order of seniority) Kasepuhan, Kanoman, and Kacirebonan.
  6. Following the death of the previous sultan, Muhammad Djalaluddin, a dispute of succession arose between two of his sons. Muhammad Emiruddin, the current occupant of the palace, is the rightful heir to his father according to the relevant laws of succession. He was actively opposed by his elder half-brother, Muhammad Saladin, who was "installed" by his supporters on 5 March 2003. Whether the dispute still exists is unclear; according to some sources, the local government has recognised Emiruddin as the sole successor.
  7. Kupang, named after its capital, was formed as a confederation of Timorese fiefdoms: Amabi, Funai, Sonbai Kecil, Taebenu, and the Helong. The chief of Sonbai Kecil, currently Leopold Isu Nisnoni, is nominally the king of the confederation, holding the title Raja of Kupang. The other current chiefs are: Gideon Broery of Amabi, and Esthon Leyloh of Funai (also spelled Foenay). The present chief of the Helong tribe is Soleman Bislissin. They are all hereditary positions.
  8. Kutai Kartanegara Ing Martadipura was officially restored as a traditional polity in 2001. Prior to restoration, the government of Indonesia had recognised the current sultan's title in 1999. He had held the title in pretence since 1992.
  9. ^ Cite error: The named reference Mataram was invoked but never defined (see the help page).
  10. The Pagaruyung kingdom was traditionally headed by a tripartite monarchy, consisting of the Raja Alam, the Raja Adat and the Raja Ibadat, collectively known as the "Kings of the Three Seats". The latter two were religious titles, while the first was considered the paramount ruler (or emperor) of the temporal world.
  11. Also commonly known as Kadriah after its ruling family.
  12. Mohammed Ikhsani Shafiuddin was officially installed as Panembahan Sri Kusuma Negara V in 2005. Prior to that, he had held the title in pretence, and his succession to the title had been officially recognised by the Indonesian government on 17 September 2003.
  13. Also commonly known as Solo.
  14. Upon the death of Pakubuwono XII in 2004, with no successor named, there arose two rival claims to the throne. Two of his sons, Hangabehi and Tejowulan, each had themselves "crowned" as the next Susuhunan. The dispute likely still exists, although family consensus apparently favours the elder brother, Hangabehi. In either case, both claimants would use the regnal name of Pakubuwono XIII.
