At the head of the government is the king (raj).
He remained throughout unflinchingly loyal to the British Raj, and by his vast and unquestioned influence among the frontier tribes on the northern borders of India he exercised a control over their unruly passions in times of trouble, which proved of invaluable service in the several expeditions led by British arms on the north-west frontier of India.
Under his supervision his raj came to be regarded as the model for good and benevolent management; he constructed hundreds of miles of roads planted with trees, bridged all the rivers, and constructed irrigation works on a great scale.
She and her husband, Raj, created an import business in Brazil exporting goods from India.
Also located there is the Raj, a well-known therapeutic retreat specializing in Ayurvedic healing methods.
