Rajasthan, the largest state of India was formed on 30 March 1949 with Jaipur as the state capital. Once known as the ‘Land of the Kings’, the state still retains the glory and richness of those times with its marvellous monuments, colorful traditions and customs. It covers most of the area of the Great Indian desert (Thar Desert) with one edge paralleling the Sutlej – Indus river valley along with its border with Pakistan. It borders Pakistan to the west, the Indian state of Gujarat to the southwest, Madhya Pradesh to the southeast, Uttar Pradesh and Haryana to the northeast and Punjab to the north.Rajasthani and Hindi are the widely used languages in the state
