Indira Kanwar (c. 1696 – 1763) was the second wife of Emperor Farrukhsiyar. The marriage of Indira Kanwar to Farrukhsiyar made him the last Mughal sovereign to marry a Rajput princess.[1][2] She left the imperial harem after her husband was assassinated by his father Ajit Singh and then she returned to her father's household. She converted back to Hinduism after returning to Jodhpur.[3]
She was born as Marwar Princess (Rajkumari), the daughter of Ajit Singh and his first wife Rani Udot Kanwarji, the daughter of Maharaj Shri Gaj Singh Sahib. She was the sister of Bakht Singh and Abhai Singh, the next rulers of Jodhpur State.
