History

According to tradition, the first ruler was a Suryavanshi Rajput of Dharanagar named Santosh Pal. While returning from a pilgrimage to Puri he crossed this territory and made peace between two local tribal groups. As a result, Santosh Pal was elected as ruler by the Sabara people, one of the tribes involved in the conflict.[2]

Rulers

The rulers of the Pal Lahara princely state claimed to be descendants of Raja Bhoj of Dhar, from the ancient Rajput Paramara dynasty.[3]
