			==History==
			[[Ratan Singh Rathore]] was killed in the battle of Dharmat, after which his descendants continued to rule Ratlam. In 1695 some soldiers of the Raja killed the [[Jaziya]] tax collectors due to which the [[Mughal Empire\|Mughal]]s completely annexed [[Ratlam]]. Keshodas stuck to imperial service during this time and on 3rd September 1699, he was made the [[faujdar]] of Nalgunda. Due to his good governance, [[Aurangzeb]] later granted Keshodas the Pargana of Titrod from which Raja Keshodas founded Sitamau State on 31st October 1701. The State of Ratlam was restored to an uncle of Keshodas called Chattrasal in 1705. In 1714 the emperor [[Farrukhsiyar]] further added the paragana of Alot to the new state.<ref>{{Cite book\|first=Raghubir\|last=Sinh\|title=Malwa in Transition Or a Century of Anarchy: The First Phase, 1698-1765\|publisher=\|year=1993\|pages=80\|isbn=9788120607507\|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=L1Z6yHKuwlUC&q=malwa.in.transition+raghubir+singh}}</ref> Sitamau faced invasions after the decline of the [[Mughal Empire]]. Nahargarh was captured by [[Gwalior State]] and Alot by [[Dewas State]]. This forced the rulers of Sitamau to seek the help of [[John Malcolm]] who formed a treaty between Gwalior and Sitamau, through which Sitamau paid a yearly tribute of Rs.33,000 to Gwalior and [[Scindia]] in return promised not to show hostility towards Sitamau. This tribute was later reduced to Rs.27,000.<ref name=SI/>
