The death of dynamic king Bhairavendra created anarchy among the subjects. Rebellions subjects were trying to snatch the ruling power from the widow of Bhairavendra. According to local tradition, Rai Bhan Singh, a younger brother of Rana of Udaipur, emcamped at Umaga on his way back to the shrine of Jagannath (Orissa). When the widow of Bhairavendra heard the arrival of a mighty king of Udaipur, she sent her messenger to the king requesting to accept her only daughter through marriage and to quell the incipient rebellions. Rana Rai Bhan Singh got control over the mutinous subjects in few days. Arranging marriage with the only daughter of the local ruling widow, he became the king of Umga hill fort. After his death, his seven descendants ruled Umga hill. The local ruling Hindu Rajas and Sisodia's coming from Mewad freed the shrines from the control of Muslims. They renovated some of the shrines and once again started Hindu traditions of performing worship in the shrines on different festive occasions, which are still continuing.
