Radhanpur — the Babi Nawabs
Babi-dynasty Nawabi state in north Gujarat; independence dated to 1753 when Jawan Mard Khan II broke from Mughal governorship. Acceded to India on 10 June 1948. Imperial Gazetteer (2026-09-22): The Gazetteer's Radhanpur State entry (vol. 21) dates the passage of the state's external relations to British oversight to 1813, with a further arrangement in 1819, rather than giving a single founding year in the passages retrieved.
