Detailed Solution

The given statement is false.
Sawai Raja Jai Singh was Amber's monarch, not of Indore. Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh, a Hindu Rajput, ruled the Amber kingdom from November 3 1688, until September 21 1743. He was born in Amber, the Kachwahas's city. In 1699, his father, Maharaja Bishan Singh, passed away, and at 11, he was crowned king of Amber. The 29th Kachwaha Rajput ruler of the Kingdom of Amber, Jai Singh II, also known as Sawai Jai Singh, established the walled city of Jaipur and made it his capital. Jai Singh worked under the Mughal Empire as a subordinate. Therefore, the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb bestowed upon him the title of Sawai.
Hence, the correct answer is Sawai Raja Jai Singh was the ruler of Amber.
