Namudag Raj was an Indian principality that controlled parts of South Bihar for much of the medieval period. It is known for the Garh royal family of the Surwar rajput (gaur dynasty). Namudag state consisted of four zamindari estates: Udaigarh, Mahuari, Naudiha, and Gulabjhari which were ruled by the members of the Namudag royal family who used to live there.[1]
