50,000 crore property dispute in the royal family

After the death of Arvind Singh Mewar, the state of disputes regarding property in the Mewar royal family has again come into the headlines. He has assets worth around 50,000 crores, and now the question is who will be the owner of these assets. Over the years, several controversies have surfaced over the properties of the Mewar family.

Death of Mahendra Singh Mewar and growing controversy

Arvind Singh Mewar's elder brother, Mahendra Singh Mewar, died in 2024. After this, the property disputes within the royal family deepened. When Mahendra Singh's son Dhuni Darshan came to the City Palace, the gate was closed, which further escalated the dispute. Arvind Singh, Mahendra Singh's younger brother, played an important role regarding the properties of the royal family, and after his death, a new twist can be seen in this dispute.

Leased Properties

The dispute over Mewar property began between 1963 and 1983, when the former Maharana Bhagwant Singh Mewar leased several properties. Displeased with this decision, Mahendra Singh filed a case in court and demanded equal distribution of the properties. However, Bhagwant Singh declared his younger son Arvind Singh of Mewar as the executor of the properties. After this decision, the controversy became more complicated.
