In Rajasthan, the most respected state was Mewar state. After the Haripura convention, Manikya Lal Verma and Balant Singh Mehta founded the Mewar Praja Mandal on 24 April 1938. This was declared illegal on 11th May, 1938. In Ajmer, Manikya Lal Verma continued his activities and published a book named ‘Mewar’s present rule’ wherein the government was badly criticised.

In Februay, 1939 AD when he came to Udaipur, he was made captive and beaten up. This incident was strongly opposed by Gandhiji on 18th February, 1939 AD in the issue of ‘Harijan’. Manikya Lal Verma was sentenced to two years of imprisonment. Later on in 1941 AD, the prohibition on Mewar Praja Mandal was lifted off. As a result, its branches were established throughout the state.
