'''Bari''' is a city and a [[municipality]] in [[Dholpur district]] in the state of [[Rajasthan]], [[India]]. Bari came into existence as a Pargana of [princely state] of Dholpur during the rule of Rana [[Ram Singh of Dholpur]] (born 1883, died 1911). He was the Jat ruler of the princely state Dholpur (1901–1911) in Rajasthan, India. He was from Bamraulia gotra of Jats. He was born on 26 May 1883 and succeeded Rana Nihal Singh in 1901 after his death. He was not of age when ascended to the throne. He got full rights in March 1905.

He married the daughter of the Maharaja Nabha. He was educated at Mayo College, Ajmer; later joined the Imperial Cadet Corps.
During his rule the state was divided into six parganas namely, 1. Dholpur, 2. Rajakheda, 3. Badi, 4. Basaidi, 5. Mania and 6. Kulari. This way the administration of the state was improved. He died on 2 April 1911. His successor was Rana Udaybhanu Singh.

Bari subdivision is well known for its excellent sandstone. Historically, this red stone was used for local construction like Bari fort, Talab-E-Shahi, Jublee hall Dholpur, Dholpur palace, Nihal tower (cloak tower) Dholpur and most of other local structures. The world-famous national monuments which are in list of UNESCO world heritage site in India are also made up of Dholpur red stone which is extracted from Bari area in capital Delhi, like the Delhi Red Fort, Humayun Tomb (Humayun ka Maqbara) located in Nizamuddin, East Delhi.

Bari red stone was used in rebuilding of [[Agra Fort]] by [[Akbar]]. This red sandstone was extracted from Barauli, a village in Bari subdivision.

The modern and future monument The Swaminarayan [[Akshardham (Delhi)]] Temple in New Delhi, is constructed entirely from Rajasthani pink sandstone. "On 17 December 2007, Michael Whitty, an official world record adjudicator for Guinness World Records, awarded the reward Akshardham as the World's Largest Comprehensive Hindu Temple."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.swaminarayan.org/news/2007/12/guinnessrecords/|title=Guinness Bestows Two World Records on HDH Pramukh Swami Maharaj|publisher=Bochasanwasi Shri Akshar Purushottam Swaminarayan Sanstha, Swaminarayan Aksharpith|accessdate=2008-10-20}}</ref><ref>{{cite news | first=Nivedita | last=Khandekar | url=http://www.rediff.com/news/2007/dec/26akshar.htm | title=Akshardham temple enters Guinness Records | date=2007-12-26 | publisher=[[Rediff.com]] | accessdate=2008-01-02 | archiveurl= https://web.archive.org/web/20071229090009/http://www.rediff.com/news/2007/dec/26akshar.htm| archivedate= 29 December 2007 | url-status= live}}</ref>

The architect of modern Delhi, [[Edwin Lutyens]], a major 20th century British architect who is known for imaginatively adapting traditional architectural style, had a special liking for this stone, and the [[Rashtrapati Bhavan]] exemplifies the use of Dholpur stone in monumental architecture.<ref>http://www.iaandb.in/xpdetours/material/rajasthan/stonetrail/dholpur{{dead link|date=October 2016 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref>
