A profile by Rajasabha Bhushana Sardar H. Muddaraja Urs (Secretary-in-Waiting to His Highness, Maharaja of Mysore Sri Jayachamaraja Wadiyar)
Prince Jayachamaraja Wadiyar was born on July 18, 1919 and thus the long cherished desire of the royal family of having a male heir was fulfilled. This not only brought great joy to the family but there was great rejoicing throughout the State, as he was born at the time of victory to the Allies in the First World War and hence the name “Jaya” was added to his name.
