Shakti Singh

Shakti Singh came to Rana Pratap rescue and killed the Afghans and gave his own horse to him. The brothers were united. Shakti Singh promised to join Rana Pratap at a later date and asked him to leave immediately. Rana Pratap bid farewell and left.

Days later, Shakti Singh was inquired about the Afghans and he lied saying that by the time he reached the scene they were killed by Rana Pratap, Jehangir said if you tell truth i will pardon you. Shakti Singh told the true story and said that he could not see his own blood being chased like that. Hence he has to rescue the Rana. Jehangir asked him to leave his court with no punishment.

Shakti Singh went to join Rana Pratap. But on his way he did capture the Bhainsrorgarh fort which was occupied by mughal forces then. The brothers from then on were very close to each other.

The Shaktawats (Achlawats and Bhanawats)

Shakti Singh had 17 sons the eldest was Rao Bhanji (of Bhindar). Rao Bhanji and Rao Achaldas were born within months of each other, although Rao Achaldas was born a little earlier, the news of his birth came after Rao Bhanji had been proclaimed the heir apparent. On Shakti Singh's death Rao Bhanji was crowned Rawat and other 16 sons including the eldest Achaldas(of Bansi) went for cremation of their father as was the custom in those days where the crown prince did not leave the palace. When they returned Rao Bhanji told them to leave the palace and fend for themselves elsewhere as he had limited resources for all 17 brothers. The brothers agreed and left.

During their journey the pregnant wife of Achaldas was about to deliver then sudden and heavy rains started. At this moment they took her under a tree but a rock was falling onto the place, his younger brother Bheem Singh who was really strong stood under the rock.
