Rana Raimal Singh , also known as Rana Raimal, (r. 1473–1509) was the Sisodia Rajput ruler of the Kingdom of Mewar. Rana Raimal was the younger son of Rana Kumbha and younger brother of his predecessor Rana Udai Singh I and father of Rana Sanga.
He came to power by defeating his patricide predecessor Rana Udai Singh I in battles at Jawar, Darimpur and Pangarh.[2] Early in Rana Raimal's reign, Sultan Ghiyas Shah of the Malwa Sultanate attacked the capital of Mewar i.e Chittor unsuccessfully.[3] Soon after Ghiyas Shah's general, Zafar Khan attacked Mewar and was defeated at Mandalgarh and Kairabad in north east of Mewar. By marrying Rathorji Shringar Deiji (daughter of Rao Jodha) Rana Raimal ended the long standing conflict with Rathore Rajputs. During Raimal's reign, Godwar, Toda and Ajmer were recaptured by his eldest son Prithviraj. Raimal also strengthened the state of Mewar and repaired the temple of Eklingji in Chittor. [4]
