After the death of his brother Maharaja Saroop Singh, Maharaja Sujan Singh became the king of Bikaner. He remained in Deccan but when Aurangzeb died in 1707, he returned to Bikaner after some time. Most of his tenure witnessed severe attacks by the kings of Jodhpur and Nagaur. The gallant force of Bikaner succeeded in repulsing back the invading armies. The designs of the aggressive kings-Abhay Singh of Jodhpur and Bakhat Singh of Nagaur could not be materialized during the reign of Maharaja Sujan Singh. The wars however continued in the reign of Maharaja Zorawar Singh who succeeded his father in 1736 A.D.
