Bishan Singh
Bishan Singh was the grandson of Ram Singh I and was ruler of Amer, and head of the Kachwaha Rajput Clan. He was also the subahdar of Assam from 1687 to 1695. Accession On the death of his grandfather Ramsingh I, the 16-year-old Bishan Singh returned to Amer with his Kachwaha clansmen. He had been serving with Ram Singh in Afghanistan, even though the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb had demanded that he be sent to serve in the Deccan Wars.
