Avantibai
Maharani Avantibai Lodhi (16 August 1831 – 20 March 1858) was an Indian Rajput queen-ruler and freedom fighter. She was the queen of the Ramgarh (present-day Dindori) in Madhya Pradesh. An opponent of the British East India Company during the Indian Rebellion of 1857, information concerning her is sparse and mostly comes from folklore. In 21st century, she has been used as an icon in Lodhi (Thakur) politics as she comes from Lodhi Rajput community.
