Abhiman Singh Basnet/Basnyat (Nepali: अभिमान सिंह बस्न्यात) was first Commander-in-Chief of Unified Nepal.[1] Abhiman Singh became the first Commander in Chief of a United Nepal after General Kalu Pande died during his second attempt to capture Kirtipur.
He had participated in invasion of Makawanpur during Unification of Nepal.[2] He commanded battles in Sino-Nepalese War as subordinate commander under Chautariya Shree Krishna Shah.[3] He commanded and annexed Tanahun Kingdom into unified Nepal.[4]
In 1794 AD, King Rana Bahadur Shah dissolved government to overthrow Bahadur Shah of Nepal.[citation needed] Kirtiman was appointed as Chief (Mul) Kaji among the four Kajis [citation needed] succeeding Abhiman Singh.[5] In 1857 B.S., he was sent to settle the area of the Kirata regional areas comprising; Pallo Kirant Limbuwan, Majh Kirant Khambuwan and Wallo Kirant, then called Kaala Banzaar. It was a great injustice to him to being sent to this area at such age when he was already a Mulkaji. Abhiman Singh died at the age of fifty-six in 1857. He was reported to have died from a fever, possibly malaria.
