Raksel is a Rajput clan.
Rajput Raja Man Singh was ruling Palamu prior to the rule of the Chero dynasty.
A Chero chief of Shahabad, Bhagwant Rai, took service under the Raksel Rajput chief Man Singh of Palamu. Bhagwant Rai assassinated Man Singh, taking advantage of the local Raja's absence at a ceremony at Surguja to raise the standard of revolt and founded his own kingdom around 1572.
