History
The Thikana of Kod (situated in the present-day Dhar district of Madhya Pradesh) was a prominent estate ruled by the Fatehsingot Rathore clan, a branch of the Rathore dynasty. This clan traces its ancestry back to Maharaj Fateh Singh, a younger son of Maharaja Udai Singh (popularly known as 'Mota Raja'), the ruler of the Kingdom of Marwar (Jodhpur) from 1583 to 1595. Seeking new territories and influence, the descendants of Maharaj Fateh Singh migrated from Marwar to the Malwa region, where they established their hegemony and founded the estate of Kod.
