| In 1615, Amar Singh submitted to Mughals. The condition of submission was framed in such a manner so as to befit both sides. Due to his old age, Amar Singh was not asked to attend the Mughal Court in person and Mewar including Chittor was assigned to him as Watan Jagir. | |||||||||
The Mughal conquest of Mewar was a military campaign led by Shah Jahan under the command of Emperor Jahangir in 1615.[4] After a year of attrition warfare, Rana Amar Singh I signed a treaty conditionally to the Mughal forces, transforming Mewar into a vassal state of the Mughal Empire.[5][6]
