History
Ancestor of the family was Raja Raj Singh of Halvad-Dhrangadhra, (son of Harpal Singh Makwana), whose two sons performed meritorious service in Udaipur, Kunwar Sajja Singh receiving the Jagir of Delwara and Kunwar Ajja Singh receiving the Jagir of Bari Sadri.
Raj Sahib Ajoji Raidharji [Raj Rana Shri Ajja Singh of Bari-Sadri], with his younger brother, he was dispossessed in an intrigue by their uncle and their younger brother Ranoji Raidharji was annointed, they then left for employment with the then Maharana of Mewar Rana Raimal and one of their descendants was Jhala Mansingh, who famously wore the armour/chainmail of Maharana Pratap Singh, during the battle of Haldighati in 1576. His descendants were given the Jagir of Bari Sadri, and the Jagirdar of Bari Sadri, at the durbar of the Maharanas of Mewar took the highest seat of prominence right next to the Maharana himself. Even above that of the Yuvaraj. Of the eight most important Thikanas of Udaipur, the three most important are held by Jhalas, namely Gogunda, Bari Sadri and Narewar (Delwara). Mokwana is the original family name but subsequent to the first descendants of Harpal Dev, they have been known as Jhalas as well.
Bari Sadri had 1st place in 16 Umrao of Mewar and 1st seat in Udaipur Darbar Hall.
