Who is known as the ‘Radha of Rajasthan’?

CONCEPT: In Rajasthan's Bhakti-movement history, several women saint-poets were given popular epithets linking them to each other or to Krishna's consort Radha, based on the style and intensity of their devotional (bhakti) poetry.

APPLICATION: Mirabai, a 16th-century poet-saint of Mewar, composed devotional verse expressing intense personal love for Krishna in a mode paralleling Radha's devotion to him; this is why she is popularly called 'Radha of Rajasthan'. The RSSB Patwar 2025 (Shift II) official answer key also confirms Mirabai as the answer to this question.

• Gavribai, an 18th-century Bhakti poet from the Wagad region (Dungarpur), carries the separate epithet 'Meera of Wagad' (Wagad ki Meera).

• Ranabai, a contemporary of Mirabai and disciple of Sant Chaturdasji (also called Khojiji), carries the separate epithet 'the second Meera of Rajasthan' (Rajasthan ki Dusri Meera).

• Gangabai does not carry the 'Radha of Rajasthan' epithet in Rajasthan's Bhakti-saint tradition.

Hence, the personality known as the 'Radha of Rajasthan' is Mirabai.
