Saamragyi
Feminine of Samrat. An alternative, but if it is in reference to Queen of England, Maharani should be best alternative. We have been using "Maharani Victoria" or "Maharani Elizabeth" may be you can use 'rani' also.

Or, if Maharani has been used in text many times and you want to avoid repetitions, you can use \"Mananiya\" or \"mahodaya\" to refer to Queen. \"mananiya dwara niyukt\".

Comment: "Thanks a lot to all of you. I had the idea what it means. In fact, I had used Samraagyee only for this term but I was still looking for suggestions in a different sense. As you know, we have got various similar expressions in English - His Excellency, His Holiness and His Highness etc and it becomes somewhat difficult to coin or locate a befitting adjective. Interestingly, we perhaps seem to have evolved Mahaamahim in respect of His Excellency which is probably used in the honour of Nation Heads.
Thanks again

Maharani
Usually, "Her Majesty" is referred to as "Maharani" (महारानी) in Hindi. Within the context, the phrase would become "Maharani dwaara niyukt" (महारानी द्वारा नियुक्त).

Satish, "Her Majesty" is used to refer to the present Queen of England. Imho, it is a term reserved for the person (if female) in that position. But the asker knows best about the context.
