'''Pathari State''' was established by Nawabzada Hayder Mohammad Khan of the [[Orakzai]] clan of Mirazikhel [[Pashtuns]]. The [[Bhopal State|State of Bhopal]] and Rahatgarh (later Rahatgarh State) became Pathari after the East India Company took control of Rahatgarh. It was founded in 1723 by Sardar Dost Muhammad Khan, from Tirah in Afghanistan, a descendant of the Mirazi Khel branch of the Warakzais (Orakzai) Pathans. He entered the service of Emperor Aurangzeb and was appointed Governor of Bhairsa. Taking advantage of the disintegration of the Mughal Empire, he declared his independence and established a separate state. Bhopal and Rahatgarh were divided between the two sons of Nawab Dost Mohammad Khan: Nawab Yar Mohammad Khan ruled Bhopal State, while Nawab Sultan Mohammad Khan took over Rahatgarh, which later became Pathari State.<ref name="IGI">[https://dsal.uchicago.edu/reference/gazetteer/pager.html?objectid=DS405.1.I34_V20_035.gif Imperial Gazetteer of India, v. 20, p. 29.]</ref> <br />

Following [[Partition of India|Indian independence]] in 1947, the last ruler of Pathari, Nawab Abdul Rahim Khan, signed the [[instrument of accession]] to the [[Dominion of India|Union of India]] on 15 June 1948.<ref name="TGI">{{Cite web |url=http://members.iinet.net.au/~royalty/ips/p/pathari.html |title=Pathari Princely State |access-date=7 August 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161117144809/http://members.iinet.net.au/~royalty/ips/p/pathari.html |archive-date=17 November 2016 |url-status=dead }}</ref> The former state was incorporated into the new state of [[Madhya Bharat]], which subsequently became [[Madhya Pradesh]] on 1 November 1956.<br />
