Akhil Bhartiya Kshatriya Mahasabha, also known as All India Kshatriya Mahasabha, was founded on 19 October 1897. It was formed to promote, protect, and fight for the rights and interests of the Kshatriya community in Indian society.
After the Revolt of 1857, the position of many Talukdars and Rajput estate holders who supported the revolutionists was compromised. The British impounded many of their lands and properties and imposed heavy fines. Raja Hanumant Singh of Kalakankar, who lost properties due to his support for the revolt, realized the need for a pan-India organization. In 1857, he founded the Ram Dal with other Talukdars of Oudh, later renamed Kshatriya Hitkarni Sabha in 1860.
This organization aimed to protect the rights of Rajput communities. It was later renamed Kshatriya Mahasabha in 1897 under the leadership of Raja Balwant Singh of Awagarh along with Thakur Umarao Singh, Raja Rampal Singh, and Raja Uday Pratap Singh. The first conference was held at Rajput Boarding House in Agra. Educational initiatives were also taken by rulers and zamindars in their territories for Kshatriya youth.
After independence, princely states merged into the Indian Union and the Zamindari system was abolished, which weakened the association. However, it was revived in 1955 at a meeting in Ujjain under the leadership of Babu Ram Narayan, a prominent Rajput politician from Bihar.
