Sangraa Singh alias Sanga, born to Jaivanta Bai on Tuesday» April 14* 14^ A.B.^ » was the third son of Hana Raiiaal* Nothing is known about his childhood though i t is safe to presume that normal martial training, a necessair equipaient of a prince-royal in the mediaeval times, v/ould not hare been denied to him; and that martial k skill which ch^terised all the sons 2 of Raimal , would have adorned the personality of young Sanga as well. We first hear of him when Prithviraj and Jaimal challenged the(^verdicts )or the astrologer and the priestess-oracle of Bhimal about the future succession of Sanga to the throne of Ghittor after the death of Raimal through their attempts on the life of Sanga. The War of Succession (150$-6 A .D .) and the period following:, the return of Sanga to Mewar to administer the state on behalf of his father schooled him in the ytays of the world and statecraft. The period preceeding the death o f Raimal proved further fateful to him by manoeinrring events to bless the beginning of the reign of Sanga with a victory over the forces of Sikandar Lodi. Battle of Bakrol:- The Vanshavalis evidence for a battle between Sher 3 4 Khan Pathan of Narwar and Maharana Sanga on the 19th day since his succession to the throne of Mewar ( i .e ., Monday, June 11,1509 A .D ,), However, no reason for this clash is giren.

Rajasthan has seen the grandeur of the Rajputs, the gallantry of the Mughals, and the extravagance of Jat monarchs. None the less history of Rajasthan has been shaped and molded to fit one typical school of thought but it holds deep secrets and amazing stories of splendors of the past wrapped in various shades of mysteries stories.

Published with open access at www.questjournals.org Chronicles of Rajputana: The Valour, Sacrifices and uprightness of Rajputs We are at a fork in the road in India that we have traveled for the past 150 years; and if we are to make true divination of the goal, whether on the right hand or the left, where our searching arrows are winged, nothing could be more useful to us than a close study of the character and history of those who have held supreme power over the country before us, - the waifs.(Sarkar: 1960) Only the Rajputs are discussed in this paper, which is based on Miss Gabrielle Festing's "From the Land of the Princes" and Colonel James Tod's "Annals of Rajasthan."

  • 7 Battles of Mughal Army
    Battles of Mughal Army Module - II Military History of Medieval India 7 BATTLES OF MUGHAL ARMY Note In the previous lesson, you studied the factors that encouraged Babur to invade India, composition of the Mughal Army and their war equipment and weapons. You also learnt that the Mughal artillery was a new weapon of war and terrifying to the enemies. The gunpowder played a vital role in winning battles and in the establishment and expansion of the Mughal empire. In this lesson, you will study the three important battles fought by Babur which laid a solid foundation of the Mughal rule in India. Panipat (a town in Haryana) has been described as the pivot of Indian history for 300 years. And its story begins in the first great battle that took place in 1526. The victory at Panipat, significant as it was, did not allow Babur the luxury to sit back and savour the moment for long. For there were other enemies such as that of Rana Sanga, the powerful ruler of Mewar to be subdued in land called Hindustan. After capturing Delhi, Babur lived for only four more years. His son Humayun and grandson Akbar continued the consolidation of Mughal power after his death. Although Mughal influence reached its political peak during Akbar's time, the foundation was laid by Akbar's grandfather. Objectives After studing this lesson you will be able to: explain the first battle of Panipat and battle field tactics of the Mughals and discuss the power-struggle that existed during the early years of the Mughal Dynasty.

London : GEORGE ROUTLEDGE & SONS, LIMITED Preface "Wherever I go, whatever days I may number, nor time nor place can ever weaken, much less obliterate, the memory of the valley of Udaipiir." Such are the words with which Colonel James Tod closed his great work, the Annals and Antiquities of Rajasthan. Few men have ever known an eastern race as Tod knew the Rajputs. He not only knew them through and through, their manners, their their ideals traditions, their character, and ; but so great was his admiration for their many noble qualities, and so completely did he identify himself with their interests, that by the time he left India he had almost become a Rajput himself. The history of Rajputana was, therefore, a subject very to Tod's heart both dear ; and, possessing imagina- tion and descriptive power, he was able to infuse into his pages much of the charm of a romance, and, what is still more rarely to be found in historical works, a powerful human interest. His sympathy for the is in line he wrote Rajputs apparent every ; but if his enthusiasm leads him at times to over- estimate their virtues, he never seeks to palliate their faults, to which, in the main, he attributes the ruin which overtook their race.

  • The Mughal Empire
    4 THE MUGHAL EMPIRE uling as large a territory as the Indian subcontinent R with such a diversity of people and cultures was an extremely difficult task for any ruler to accomplish in the Middle Ages. Quite in contrast to their predecessors, the Mughals created an empire and accomplished what had hitherto seemed possible for only short periods of time. From the latter half of the sixteenth century they expanded their kingdom from Agra and Delhi, until in the seventeenth century they controlled nearly all of the subcontinent. They imposed structures of administration and ideas of governance that outlasted their rule, leaving a political legacy that succeeding rulers of the subcontinent could not ignore. Today the Prime Minister of India addresses the nation on Independence Day from the ramparts of the Red Fort in Delhi, the residence of the Mughal emperors. Fig. 1 The Red Fort. 45 THE MUGHAL EMPIRE 2021-22 Who were the Mughals? The Mughals were descendants of two great lineages of rulers. From their mother’s side they were descendants of Genghis Khan (died 1227), the Mongol ruler who ruled over parts of China and Central Asia. From their father’s side they were the successors of Timur (died 1404), the ruler of Iran, Iraq and modern-day Turkey. However, the Mughals did not like to be called Mughal or Mongol. This was because Genghis Khan’s memory was associated with the massacre of innumerable people. It was also linked with the Uzbegs, their Mongol competitors. On the other hand, the Mughals were ?

  • 10. Establishment of the Mughal Rule
    MODULE - 2 Medieval India 10 Notes ESTABLISHMENT OF THE MUGHAL RULE In the previous chapter you studied about the establishment and consolidation of Delhi Sultanate (1206–1526). During this period the rulers were Turks and Afghans. You must have noticed that throughout the Sultanate period there was constant struggle between the various Turkish groups and Afghans. The disintegration of the Delhi Sultanate led to the emergence of various regional powers. Therefore, when Babur invaded India in 1526 the central power of the Sultanate had substantially weakened and there were a number of independent kingdoms. The Delhi and adjoining regions were under Sultan Ibrahim Lodi. Other Important kingdoms were Gujarat, Malwa, Bengal, Bijapur, Golconda, Ahmednagar, Berar, Mewar and Vijaynagar empire in the South. Besides, a large num- ber of smaller autonomous chiefs were also ruling in different parts of the country. In this lesson you will study about the conquest of India by a new ruling dynasty-the Mughals. The Mughals were led by an able military commander and administra- tor from Central Asia named Zahiruddin Muhammad Babur. His successors were success- ful in establishing an all India empire gradually. We will study the details of this process of conquests and consolidation in this lesson. Let us begin with the advent of Babur in India. OBJECTIVES After studying this lesson you would be able to: know the circumstances under which Babur invaded India; describe the reasons for the success of the Mughals against Indian rulers; list the challenges faced by Humayun after Babur’s death; analyse the circumstances that led to the defeat of Humayun and revival of Afghan power; describe the events leading to recapture of India by Humayun; give an account of the expansion and consolidation of the Mughal empire under Akbar; describe the territorial expansion upto the reign of Aurangzeb and analyse the challenges faced by the Mughal empire in India.
