Palanpur State

Palanpur State was a princely seat located in present-day Gujarat, India, that existed during the British colonial period. It was a small, semi-autonomous region ruled by a local ruler known as a Maharaja or Thakur, who maintained some degree of independence under British suzerainty. The state was part of the larger political framework of British India, with its own administrative structures. After India gained independence in 1947, Palanpur State was integrated into the Indian Union, eventually becoming part of the state of Gujarat.
