House of Scindia: Maratha dynasty that ruled the Gwalior State in India
House of Scindia was a Hindu Maratha Royal House that ruled the erstwhile Gwalior State in central India. It had the patil-ship of Kumberkerrab in the district of Wai and was founded by Ranoji Scindia, who started as a personal servant of the Peshwa Bajirao I. Ranoji and his descendants, along with their rivals the Holkars, played a leading role during the Maratha ascendancy in northern India in the 18th-century. The Gwalior State became a princely state under the British Raj during the 19th and the 20th-centuries. After India's independence in 1947 and the abolition of princely states, several members of the Scindia family went on to enter Indian politics.
