In 1728, the Pschwa Accord divided this district of Central India between
brothers, Tukaji and Sivaji Puar. That's was the beginning of later states,
Dewas Sr and Dewas Jr.

Dewas Jr.: The swallow tail flag of Dewas Jr. was red, the color of "Kshatriya
clan" with Hindu god Hanuman carrying mountain in his left hand. Lord Hanuman
was the family deity of the ruler.

The Dewas Senior flag has a red color background with Hanuman in
yellow. (source "History of Pawars of Dewas" 1952). The Hanuman posted is slightly different in some details but I
believe that patterns between same flags are frequently manufactured or
embroidered with minor differences.
