RajRana Jhala Maan Singh ( Rajasthani: मान सिंह झाला ) also called Bida Jhala and Jhala Manna was the Governer/Rajrana of Bari-Sadri and a martyr at Haldighati[1] who wore Maharana Pratap's royal insignia and saved Pratap's life[2] (just like his Ancestor Jhala Ajja did for Rana Sanga).

During the battle of Haldighati he forced major part of Mughal army to flee towards outskirts of Gogunda before he got killed.[2][3]
