Manikarnika Tambe (1835?-1858) married Gangadhar Rao, Maharaja of Jhansi and changed her name to Lakshmi becoming Rani Lakshmibai of Jhansi. They were childless when her husband died in 1853 and the British refused to recognise the adopted son invoking the Doctrine of Lapse to annexe the princely state. The Rani was given a pension and required to leave the palace at Jhansi Fort.
