Kota's history dates back to the 12th century when the Rajputs subjugated the Chambal Valley and after formed the two states of Kota and Bundi on either side of the Chambal River. While Bundi functioned as the capital, Kota was the land decided to the eldest son of the king. In 1624, Emperor Jahangir made Kota an autonomous state and Rao Madho Singh (the son of Bundi's Ruler), ascended the throne of Kota.
