I read Jaipur royal family have no sons and all are adopted. Because of a curse on Raja Man Singh. Is it true? This is Jodha's nephew Man Singh is it?

It is said in ballads commonly sung by JOGI's that Jaimal-Patta had cursed Raja mansingh of Amer(Jaipur) who was the key strategist on Akbar's side(he conceived the plan to make MOHAR TEKRI-made by paying anyone who could put one basket of sand on that place to make a high point where finally the artillery gun which could reach the fort was installed).The curse was that just like he had destroyed their family-his kingdom will have no males to become a king.Still all kings in jaipur are ADOPTED ones as whoever sits on jaipur throne will not have any male child.

No these curses work sometimes

There is a similar story of wodeyar family curse they do not have heirs and all are adopted like Raja Man Singh family

But people may have made up stories of curse too not sure because the legal heirs are not born

In case of Mysore the heir is born every alternate generation
