Let's see what our beloved secular Akbar did in Chittor siege of 1567-68 AD. Once he broke into the fort with his army. Tabaqat-i-Nasiri of Bakshi Nizamuddin Ahmad says that he gave orders of general massacre. I repeat, "general massacre" i.e. kill everyone. Not combat armed men.

Colonial Crooks & Smiths he considers sanctimonious have been rebutted long ago by the likes of C V Vaidya, G H Ojha, Dasharatha Sharma, R B Singh, & J N Asopa. Yet he peddles the myths which tells of his bias & selective approach.
This explains Maharaj Prithviraj's caste neutrality in the movie. Dr. Dwivedi believes that origin of Rajputs is itself unclear, and the opinion of "scholars" (whose sanctity he considers imp) holds that mediaeval Rajputs had no connection with ancient Kshartiyas. Chauhans may+

My 4 yr old daughter's zoom class. Teacher explains on wishing elders in morning (paraphrased): 'सब babies को mamma papa को सुबह उठ के wish करना चाहिए। आप लोग good morning बोलते हैं ना babies'
Then asks my daughter: आप mamma papa को सुबह उठ के क्या बोलते हो?
Daughter: जय श्री राम
Prithviraj Chauhan was held captive on Phalguna Purnima of samvat 1248. Ghori preferred Prithviraj as a local vassal for smooth transition. Yet within 2 weeks Prithviraj was killed in Ajmer & few weeks later Chaitra sudi trayodashi samvat 1249 Delhi of Tomars fell.

My ancestors claim to be from the same clan as Prithviraj Chauhan and all of them agree with this. Jaicchand had no role to play. In fact he does fighting the Ghurids while Prithviraj ruled after being defeated as a vassal
Result? Death of 25000 civilians+8000 Rajput combatants. This in a fort Akbar had already won 👏. Once ghazi Akbar was done with his blood lust. He wanted to see his report card. Janeus from fallen soldiers, civilians were collected & weighted for kill estimate. Weight=74.5 manns
Your truly presented a paper at the Rajasthan History Congress in Jodhpur. Title: "Ghantiyālā inscriptions - Reassessing some aspects of the History of Pratihāras".
Linguistic bufoonery of lallantop scholars- "Rajput is a 16th century term hence no Rajputs b4 that".
Like 'homosapiens' was of 19th century & so no homosapiens before 19th century?
Like Hindu was of 5th century BCE so no Hindus before 5th cent. BCE?
Kudos to such Einsteins 👏👏

Cynthia Talbot, a favorite historian of the JNU lobby claims twice in her book that the Raso blames Jaichand for calling Ghori to India. Truth is that not a single copy of the Raso has any such data. To the contrary its poet extols Jaichand for keeping Shahabuddin cowered in fear
Jadunath Sarkar's book 'Military history of india' categorically mentions Prithviraj Chauhan's forces as 'Hindu army'.Cynthia Talbot has authored her book on Prithviraj Chauhan called 'The last Hindu Emperor'.Historical writing suffers from communal undertones long before B-town.

आमतौर पर समाजशास्त्र या राजनीति में नहीं घुसता। लेकिन रोचक वार्तालाप है इसलिए खुद को टिप्पणी से रोक नही पाया। मैं ये "महसूस होने वाले" इतिहास का विद्यार्थी तो नही, लेकिन तथ्यों पर जो खरा इतिहास मिलता है उसे थोड़ा सा जानता हूं। सो संक्षेप में कुछ बातें, केवल ऐतिहासिक पहलुओं पर...

To eternalize the memory of this deed the number 74.5 is accursed and marked on banker's letter in Rajasthan. It is the strongest of seals, for "the sin of the sack of Chittor" is invoked on he who violates a letter under the safeguard of this sacrosanct number.
Just found out that I've recovered the monetary cost in this enterprise. I will soon announce the details/evidence of which charity will receive all further author royalties from the sale of this book. As always, thanks a lot for your support & encouragement. 🙏
As soon as my cost in publishing is recovered, all further author royalty from this book’s sale will be donated to a charity. Further charity details & evidence of fund transfers shall follow if/when we cut over to that stage.

Buckle up to see the bright face of your secular hero.
Once ghazi Akbar left Chittor, he couldn't control his glee of butchering so many kafirs in latest jihad. So, he had a letter issued, to sing his own peans. It is called Fatehnama-i-Chittor.
Vandalising the History by motivated forceful reviews.
Blog version at -
There was a ill-informed six point review from Quint, of the recently released movie on Prithviraj Chauhan.
I recently came across a random tweet (below).
Nothing fishy on the face, went through the video given in it. It barely had anything to relate with this tweet. So, will leave the tweet here & take you through what a so called scholar (Manoshi Sinha) has said in the video. 1/n
Interesting & polarizing choice of words. Firstly, he was defeated fair and square in his battles. No shame in that, except when someone wants to portray it with subjective bias centuries later. Treaties with defeated opponent weren't humiliation rather lifesavers, facesavers.

Secondly, as per Aurangzeb Shivaji wasn't even supposed to be alive. Yet it was Mirza Raja Jai Singh and other Rajputs who saved Shivaji's life not once or twice but four times. Funny that negative reading of history is also a selective reading.

Taliban & Indian Kitchen: A Thread...
One of India’s key imports from Afghanistan is hing (asafoetida), a spice introduced to India by the Mughals in the 16th century & flavours everything from sambar to pakoras.

Khokhars were a wild tribe of obscure origin (1) inhabiting northern Af-Pak region (2). This is before the arrival of Turkish tribes. Their association with castes like Jats and Rajputs are all a late development.
Prithviraj Chauhan defeated Mohammed Ghori in 1191 CE but was killed by Ghori in 1192. On March 5, 1206, on his way back to Ghazni, his caravan rested at Dhamiak near Sohawa (near Jhelum). He was assassinated by a group of Khokhar Jats led by Ramlal Khokhar.

Can we please stop making fuss out of nothing. Haldighati was a battle, not a war. The battle was undecided and the war won by Maharana. Everything doesn't have to be black and white.
If Prithviraj captured & forgave Ghori who was at former's mercy in Tarain-I. Then why did Prithviraj not ask captive Ghori to vacate his garrison at Sarhind which later held ground for months. Latter would have happily done so to live.
Common sense?
Thank you for pointing out that I used Hammir Mahakavya. I also used Kanyānayanīya Mahāvīra Pratimā Kalpa, Prabandha Chintamani and the muslim sources like Taj-ul-Maasir, Jawami ul Hiqayat - all of which predate the mafluzats you've used.
Notice how the map on wall shows border at the Af-Pak mountain ranges of Hindukush, Toba Kakkar, Kirthal ranges. This is where lies the natural frontier of India. This is the minimum we must restore to.

We have a national disease, infesting from the mango man to the so called elite. This itch to shoot sermons using history as the barrel. Ironically, most don't "read and verify" before chewing and passing on the crap that someone else somewhere else had spat on them.😞
Too many of the "samantvadi" ruling chiefs of India contributed to BHU in many ways. Following tweet has just a select list of some of the biggest donors...
A battle scene I would love enacted in movies. Imagine simultaneous volleys of 2 thousand matchlocks and 4000 enemy (entire force) perish in a short interval.
Hindu Leadership lelo fraands !
There was always a Jaichand building temples of lord Rama and laying down his life in some field of Chandawar, which is how people could survive to ignorantly blabber about him centuries later.
@theskindoctor13
For 1200 long years, India was defeated, occupied, looted & ruled by the invaders not because India was weak but there was always a Jaichand.
These Tukde-Tukde gang would go to any extend to destroy India but

is different and won't let them succeed.
Very poor tendency in Indian historiography & its consumption. We always try to make absolute heroes or villains out of people.
Can't digest a single +ve of Jaichand & can't hear a single -ve of R R Roy. Dear facts, pls stop bothering us. We're fine in our biased little cocoon.
Jai Singh didn’t defect. There was no reasonable side left to fight for. It was game over. Dara & Jaswant Singh ji were defeated. Murad and Shahjahan were jailed. Agra & Delhi were in Aurangzeb’s hands. All the commanders were 1 by 1 joining Aurangzeb.
However, as soon as Aurangzeb won the battle against Jaswant Singh, Jai Singh defected to Aurangzeb's camp, and deserted Sulaiman Shikoh and Dara Shikoh. He was rewarded for this act by an inam(gift) of a mahal, or estate, worth a kror of dams

A review of my book.
The shameless fools who've been using the vilest abusive language (with/without facts) on the debates of history lately. Do not represent anybody other than the faults of their own upbringing. Disgusting behaviour which cannot & will not be defended.
I know this has been debunked thoroughly. Sharing my thoughts anyway.
Will comment only where I disagree. Hope it will add some fresh insight for readers.

Ever heard the song “Kajra mohabbat wala …” where the lyrics go “Chadhti javani ki ye, Pehli bahar le ke, Dilli sheher ka sara Meena bazaar le ke” Do you know the history of the real Meena Bazaar & its connection to Akbar the “Great”?
This thread will be gradually appended with short clips of information on the famous Chauhan King Prithviraj III.

Let's settle this once and for all.
Gurjara means the land which enterprises to suppress its enemies. Accordingly, due to residence in Gurjaradesh, its citizens are called Gurjara and Gurjari. (ShabdaKalpadruma, in turn citing Shabda Rantavali a late mediaeval source).1/4
Not Prithviraj but his minor son Govindaraj was admonished for truce with invaders. Prithviraj's personality gleaned from all sources testifies that he didn't have it in him to surrender or compromise with mlechhas.
आजकल चौहानों को लेकर कुछ आधारहीन अतिउत्साहित धारणाएं बार बार उठती है। जैसे कि चौहान वंश मालवों की राजर्षि नामक किसी शाखा से उत्पन्न थे। इसपर हम पीछे विस्तृत खंडन दे चुके हैं। एक और धारणा जिसे इतिहास के कलेवर में प्रस्तुत किया जाता है, वो है :
Hmm.
Repairing relations with Tomars. Treaty with Chaulukyas despite having an upper hand.
Stepping out of Kingdom at appeal of other Kings to defeat Ghori.
Routing Ghurids in Tarain-I despite inferior cavalry.
What a colossal military disaster Prithviraj Chauhan! 🙄

After the infamy of Quint's recent review, there's yet another history hit job from the eminences, or their minions? This time published in the Wire.
Blog version of our rebuttal is at -
Marathas drew salary first from Adil Shahis who were excessing in Karnatiks & southern Deccan. Then from the Mughals where they eventually outnumbered the Rajputs in mansabdari.
When Marathas benefited from these, Hindus of South Deccan and beyond suffered from same mil machine
Rajputs drew their salary from Mughal wealth. Same Mughal wealth that was gained by looting rest of India.
At the same time when Rajputana was benefiting from alliance with Mughals, Maharashtra was suffering badly due to same military machine.
