Rao Tularam Singh (circa 9 December 1825 – 23 September 1863) was a Yaduvanshi Ahir or Yadav King of Ahirwal.[1] He was one of the key leaders of the Indian rebellion of 1857 in Haryana, where he is considered a state hero.[2]

He is credited with temporarily driving all of the British rule from the south-west Haryana during the rebellion, and also helping rebel forces fighting in the historic city of Delhi with men and money. Noted as a good administrator and military commander.[citation needed]
