The Ambliara State, also spelt Ambalaria, Amliara, Amliyara or Ambaliyara, was a princely state under Mahi Kantha Agency of the Bombay Presidency during the era of the British Raj in India.
History
The Ambliara State was ruled by a Chauhan family that is categorized among the "Kshatriya Koli" Thakordas (minor lords).[1] According to the Gujarat State Gazetteers, the rulers were "Khant Kolis" by caste, and their family claimed descent from the Chauhans of Sambhar and Ajmer.[2][3][4]
A single, undated one paisa banknote was issued by the state.[5]
