The All India Meo Sabha was founded by the Late Chaudhary Rahim Khan in 1967. It was responsible for uniting the 'Meo Samaj' (Mewati people) that were scattered across Haryana, Rajasthan, Delhi, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra and Uttar Pradesh, post independence. The organization under the leadership of Chaudhary Rahim Khan made demands for a university in Mewat, extension of railway lines to the Mewat region of Rajasthan and Haryana, as well as the recognition of the ethnic Meos as part of the Scheduled Tribes denomination in India and granting them reservations accordingly due to their economically and educationally disadvantaged status in Indian society.[2]

A committee of the All India Meo Sabha led by Chaudhary Rahim Khan with himself to the right of the late Prime Minister of India, Rajiv Gandhi.
