During the marriage of Manbhawati Bai (sister of man singh) to Jahangir, her father (Bhagwan Das) proudly called her a MAID of Mughal Palace & himself a SLAVE of Mughals 😂
Third we have Emperor Shahjahan. He had established an interesting law wherein the first night rights of any wedding involving Rajputs was to be given to the Emperor.
Then we have Aurangzeb. After kachawaha's if there's any other clan who cvcked the most then it's the Rathores

R@pist rajju kang Ajit Singh Rathore had married off his daughter to Mughal Emperor Farrrukhsiyar.
Apart from Mughals, Rajjus also voluntarily married their daughters to non-mughal muslim kings for petty political benefits.
One of the famous case being that of Rao Maldeo who married off his daughter to Nagaur Muslims for availability of few horses.

Mind you no marriage was forced. It was always the Rajput side who came up with the proposal.
This thread was just on Rajput Princesses & not on ordinary rajput women. It will require another thread on the amount of rajput women in harems of mughals & other muslim sultanates.
