== Early life ==
Pratap Singh was the eldest son of [[Shahu II of Satara]], whom he succeeded, and a descendant of [[Shivaji]], the founder of the Maratha Empire.<ref name="TSR" />

== Emperor ==
He was dethroned and stripped of his powers and personal possessions in 1839. He was exiled to [[Benares]] and granted an allowance for his maintenance. Rango Bapuji Gupte, a loyal Sardar to him, long fought unsuccessful legal battles in London on his behalf.

He was succeeded by his brother, Appa Saheb, under the title Shreemant Maharaj Shaji Raja Chhatrapati of Satara. Appa Saheb then became known as [[Raja Shahaji of Satara|Raja Shahaji]].<ref name="TSR" />

== Reign ==
{{unsourced section|date=July 2020}}

Pratap Singh built Pune-Satara Road, a palace called Rajwada that was used as a court for 150 years. It is now in possession of the ''vanshaj'' of Udayan Maharaj). Pratap Singh High School was started around 1851. Dr [[B. R. Ambedkar|Babasaheb Ambedkar]] was a pupil of this school until 4th standard.

Pratap Singh's wife started a Private Library in Satara town in 1851 that was open to the public of Satara. The library now known as Nagar Vachanalaya was once Chhatrapati Pratap Singh Maharaj (Thorle) Nagar Vachanalay Satara.

He built the Satara-Medha-Mahabaleshwar Road in [[Mahabaleshwar]] (a hill station for Britishers he established Malcom Peth named for the contemporary Governor of Bombay (Now Mumbai) 48 km from Satara) State.

Rajpath 2 ways from Rajwada to Powai Naka was built by him.

He started two schools for English, Persian, Marathi, and Sanskrit in Satara. Modern Satara is his creation as Chhatrapati Shahu I's RangMahal was burned in a fire, following which he built Jal Mandir Palace as a residence for him and his family where now Chhatrapati [[Udayanraje Bhosale]] live.
