About Raja Desingh:-

Raja Desingh or Raja Tej Singh was a king of the Bundela Rajput who ruled Gingee in 1714 CE.
The Bundelas are a Rajput clan of central India. The families belonging to this clan ruled several small states in the Bundelkhand region from the 16th century.

After the Mughal Empire defeated the Maratha Empire at Gingee Fort in 1698, in return for military services, the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb, granted the kiladari (Fort Commandership) of Gingee to Swarup Singh, a Bundela Rajput chieftain in 1700 AD. Raja Swarup Singh died of old age in 1714 AD. He was briefly succeeded by his son, Desingh who died gallantly in an attempt to save the fort from the Nawab of Arcot.
