During British rule in India Abhaypura or Jiliya was a Princely Thikana of the Princely State of Jodhpur. Princely State Abhaypura was half of Maroth state and was founded around 1683 AD (1740 BS) by Maharaja Bijay Singh, third son of Maharaja Raghunath Singh Mertia Rathore of Maroth. In 1820 AD it accepted nominal allegiance of Jodhpur State. It had 40 villages of Maroth; later, after a treaty it became a Thikana of Marwar and is now called as Thikana Jiliya and has 14 villages, as the rest of the villages were given as appanages or jagirs to younger brothers. As per Indira Gandhi National Centre for the Arts, the paintings of the Man Mandir Temple of Maroth, Rajasthan best depict the art form of the 17th Century Rajputana. Title
The title of the rulers "Tazim Naresh Maharaja Shri" (Great Hon'ble King) is derived from the Urdu word Tazeem (Tazim) meaning 'respect' or 'honour', which describes their special position as a Dual Tazimi Thikana in the Princely State of Jodhpur whom the Jodhpur Maharaja receives in Darbar by rising from throne, taking steps, and hugging, and are exempted from appearance in Courts of Law in Civil Cases; and Naresh meaning "King" or "Maharaja" or "Raja". A volunteer program known as the Jiliya Project, run by the Sankalp Volunteer Society NGO, is active in the region as Nagaur is one of the economically underdeveloped districts of the state. Being a desert area, it also suffers from lack of water which makes the situation even worse for agricultural activities. Medical and infrastructure facilities
