Sord dynasty of Idar State

The Sord dynasty was a ruling dynasty in Gujarat that ruled over Idar state for many generations.

 Rise of dynasty 
This dynasty was ruled by various dynasties at different times starting from the Pratihara Rajputs then Hathi Sor Koli who was a vassal in the Eder state, but Amarsingh Parmar, the ruler of the Eder state, was killed in a battle after which Hathi Sord took over as the ruler of the Eder state. He was succeeded by his son, Samwaliya Sord. Later, the Rathore Rajput prince, Sonangji, defeated the former ruler and assumed control, establishing the Rao dynasty that reigned for numerous generations.

 Fall of dynasty 
Maharaja Sanvalia Sord appointed a Nagar Brahmin as the commander of the army of the state of Idar but commander was jealous of the maharaja, due to which the commander asked for help from the Rathores. The Senapati incited the Rathore Rajputs to attack Hathi Sord and made a strategy. 

According to the plan, the commander called Hathi Sord for his daughter's wedding party and hid the soldiers in the houses of neighbouring region.  Later, Rathore Rajputs captured the idar from Kolis but later they were drove out by Rao Rajputs.
