Comment :
Ram Simha II (also known as Raja Ram Singh II) was one of the notable rulers of the Jaintia Kingdom, a historically significant state that spanned parts of present-day Meghalaya in India and Sylhet in Bangladesh. His reign marked a critical phase in the kingdom’s history, particularly in the context of its relations with neighboring powers and the British East India Company.
