The Ratnavli Mehras
Ratnavli, a former Indian kingdom in the state of Punjab was ruled over by the Mehras. Though it was agreed to be finished off in 1947 after India became independent, the Ratnavli Mehras still are alive. They reside in Europe, Asia, and the United States. There are many heirs of Ratnavli. The 'true' heir is unknown, as many research on the Mehra family tree will have to be sifted through, and the heir really will have no benefit other than pride. Rai Bahadur S. Ravi Mehra, who resides in the United States is one of the current generation Mehras with Ratnavlian blood. Rai Bahadur is the title the Princes and Kings of Ratnavli were gifted with. 'Rai Bahadur' means Great King in Punjabi. The Ratnavli Mehra Coat-of-Arms
