Els seus donatius, quantiosos, al Col·legi mèdic de Lucknow i al Col·legi Bhuindar de Muzaffarpur, la seva fundació i sosteniment de l'hospital de dones de Benarés, i l'erecció i el mecenatge d'una clínica a Kasauli per als pobres que se sotmetien a tractament a l'Institut Pasteur, són petites mostres de la seva munificència. Sempre va donar proves de la seva liberalitat dotant esplèndidament el Col·legi Central Indostano de Benarés, que ja devia a la seva generositat notables edificis, espaiosos terrenys i àmplies escoles. Esmentarem també la Biblioteca d'Autors Sànscrits i l'Asil de pobres, a Ramungar, que en el seu temps va ser un model a la seva classe. Els serveis del príncep van ser recompensats el 1892 amb el nomenament de cavaller comanador de l'Ordre de l'Imperi Indi; en 1910 se li va reconèixer com a cap sobirà i se li va atorgar el títol de maharajá bahadur amb el tractament de Vostra Altesa. Prabhu Narayan va ser succeït pel seu únic fill, Sir Aditya Narayan Singh. (ca)
