Makran state was ruled by Gichki Nawabs,[2] who were of Rajput origins.[3][4] Their ancestor, Jagat Singh had migrated from Rajputana in the 17th century and became Muslim. Gichkis now consider themselves as Baloch.[5] On 21 March 1948, the rulers of Makran, Kharan and Las Bela all announced that they were acceding their states to the Dominion of Pakistan.[6]
