Raimal Singh, also known as Rana Raimal, (r. 1473–1509) was a Hindu Rajput ruler of Mewar. Maharana Raimal was the son of Rana Kumbha and his Rathore queen, a princess of Idar.

He came to power by defeating his patricide predecessor, Udai Singh I in battles at Jawar, Darimpur and Pangarh.[4] Early in Raimal's reign, Ghiyas Shah of Malwa attacked Chittor unsuccessfully.[5] Soon after, Ghiyas Shah's general, Zafar Khan attacked Mewar and was defeated at Mandalgarh and Khairabad. By marrying Sringardevi (daughter of Rao Jodha), Raimal ended the conflict with the Rathores. During Raimal's reign, Godwar, Toda and Ajmer were captured by his son Prithviraj. Raimal also strengthened the state of Mewar and repaired the temple of Eklingji in Chittor. [6]
