Maharana Jagat Singh I[1] (1607 – 10 April 1652), was the Maharana of Mewar Kingdom in Rajputana, India (r. 1628–1652).[2] He was the son of Maharana Karan Singh II. Maharana Jagat Singh built a wall around the Chittor Fort. When Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan heard of it, he sent his noble wazir Sadullah Khan to invade Mewar because Shah Jahan thought that Jagat Singh broke the treaty that his father Jahangir made with Maharana Amar Singh I . The treaty had a clause that any Rana of Mewar cannot build any defence or safe wall around the fort. Maharana sent his messengers when Sadullah Khan reached the borders of Mewar, the misunderstanding was soon resolved and the Mughals turned back. Maharana Jagat Singh made a new treaty with Shah Jahan and demolished the wall that he built around the fort.
