You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Dhaulpur State''' or '''Dholpur State''', historically known as the '''Kingdom of Dholpur''',  was a kingdom of eastern [[Rajasthan]], [[India]],  which was founded in [[Anno Domini|AD]] 1806 by a [[Jat]] ruler [[Rana (title)|Rana]] [[Kirat Singh]] of [[Gohad State|Gohad]].<ref name="Random House India">((cite book | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Azy2w8nDPP4C&q=dholpur+state+ruler&pg=PT19 | title=The Mysterious Mr Jacob | publisher=Random House India | author=John Zubrzycki | year=2012 | page=3 | isbn=9788184003369))</ref><ref>((cite web

| publisher = 
|url=http://dholpuronline.in/city-guide/history-of-dholpur#))</ref> After 1818, the state was placed under the authority of [[British India]]'s [[Jatwara]]. The Ranas ruled the state until the independence of India in 1947, when the kingdom was merged with the [[India|Union of India]].

The [[princely state]] of [[Dholpur]] was located in the present-day state of [[Rajasthan]]. The state had an area of ((convert|3038|km2|sqmi|abbr=on)), and an estimated revenue of Rs.9,60,000.<ref>((cite web|url=https://dsal.uchicago.edu/reference/gazetteer/pager.html?objectid=DS405.1.I34_V11_330.gif|title = Imperial Gazetteer2 of India, Volume 11, page 324 -- Imperial Gazetteer of India -- Digital South Asia Library))</ref>

The former chief minister of [[Rajasthan]], [[Vasundhara Raje]], was a member of the erstwhile ruling family of Dholpur as she was married to Maharaja Hemant Singh before getting divorced.

==History==
Very little is known of the early history of the state. According to tradition a predecessor state was established as Dhavalapura. In 1505 neighboring [[Gohad]] State of Rana [[Jat]]s was founded and between 1740 and 1756 Gohad occupied  [[Gwalior Fort]]. From 1761 to 1775 Dholpur was annexed to [[Bharatpur State]] and between 1782 and December 1805 Dholpur was again annexed by Gwalior. On 10 January 1806 Dholpur became a [[British protectorate]] and in the same year the Ruler of Gohad merged Gohad into Dholpur.<ref name="WS"/><ref name="IGI">[https://dsal.uchicago.edu/reference/gazetteer/pager.html?objectid=DS405.1.I34_V11_329.gifImperial Gazetteer of India, v. 11, p. 323.]</ref>

The last ruler of Dholpur signed the [[instrument of accession]] to the Indian Union on 7 April 1949 and the state was merged in [[Matsya Union]].<ref name="TGI">((Cite web |url=http://members.iinet.net.au/~royalty/ips/d/dholpur.html |title=Dholpur Princely State (15 gun salute) |access-date=28 June 2014 |archive-date=14 January 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150114005722/http://members.iinet.net.au/~royalty/ips/d/dholpur.html |url-status=dead ))</ref>
