Chanvarsen used to rule there. He had many sons, including Kamalsen, Brahmasen, and Ratisen. After defeating the Sultan of Ghazni, Bappa Rawal allegedly became the chieftain of the Chanwar dynasty. This dynasty was described in History of Rajasthan by Colonel Tad Sir.

In that period, this dynasty ruled in the western part of India. The royal family had matrimonial relations with the Bappa Rawal dynasty. Rana Sanga and his wife Jhali Rani followed Saint Raidasji as their guru and gave him the title of Rajguru of their Mewar.[5][6]
