Kshetra Singh[1] (died 1382), was Maharana (r. 1364-1382) of Mewar Kingdom. He was the son of Maharana Hammir Singh. In his reign, he conquered Ajmer and Mandalgarh. After his death, he was succeeded by Rana Lakha Singh (1382-1421). Rana Kshetra Singh was defeated by Lal Singh of Bundi.
Rule
Rana Kshetra, who ruled Mewar from A.D. 1364 to A.D. 1382, was the son and successor of the celebrated Rana Hammir. He greatly enlarged the kingdom. He captured Ajmer and Jahazpur, re-annexed Mandalgarh, Mandsore and the whole of Chappan to Mewar. He obtained a victory over the Sultan of Delhi,[2] who was utterly defeated at Bakrole. Kshetra Singh also took the Sultan of Gujarat prisoner in a battle. The Kumbalgarh inscription says that he captured Zafar Khan, Sultan of Patan (First Independent Sultan of Gujarat). Rana Kshetra Singh further increased his fame by defeating the Sultan of Malwa and killing his general Ami Shah.[3] Maharana Kshetra Singh died in 1382 AD during a campaign against the Hada of Bundi.[4]
