Alwar State Original Flag (1775): State flag dating back to the founding of the state (c. 1775). The shield of the coat of arms of the Maharaja, in use from 1877 to 1931, showed stripes of the same colors and the same provision.

Alwar State Flag(1931): Classic banner of the Rajputs (panchranga, the five colors), the flag was changed in 1931 to the sequence of colors (and since 1933, also returned to being banner of the Maharaja). It remained officially in use until 1949.

The Original COA was changed by Lieutenant-Colonel H.H. Raj Rishi Shri Sawai Maharaja Sir Mangal Singhji Veerendra Shiromani Dev Bharat Prabhakar Bahadur, Maharaja of Alwar (1874 - 1892) by writing a letter to the Government of India. Maharaja Mangal Singhji discarded Taylor’s (Robert Taylor of the Bengal Civil Service and the designer of the COAs of the Indian Princely States ) design and gave his reasons why he substituted his own. Taylor had designed four kutars in a very un-heraldic layout with the Panchranga barry of the field.

Item by item the Maharaja eliminates everything, and leaves just Azure, a Kutar erect Or on a round shield. The solitary kutar recalls the following story. Mairaj, the father of Naru, the founder of the Narukha clan, was at war with Kalodar Jhala of Jhalrapatan. After much fighting, an interview was arranged between the two monarchs. When they were squatting on the ground facing one another, four of Jhala’s men pinioned Mairaj’s arms from behind with intent to murder him. Mad at the treachery, but unable to use his hands, Mairaj gripped Jhala’s katar with his toes, pulled it out of his waistband and ended the opponent’s life by thrusting it in his stomach with a vigorous kick.
