In a sense, that is the true motto of the Sisodia clan, and why it has a special place in the heart of Rajput and non-Rajput alike, and why the ruler of so small a Rajyam has such a special place in history. Even after Chittor’s fall, and the Sisodia branch established itself with Hammir Guhilot of Sisoda, the tradition of the Maharawals continued in the Maharanas. From the time of the Arabs down to Delhi Turks and the mughals, Mewar’s ruling house refused to be cowed down by usurpers, and even when facing the most impossible odds, refused to barter away its dignity. Going back to Bappa Rawal, an unbroken line of true dharmrakshaks shielded Southern Rajasthan from the depredations of powerful mlecchas. It has produced some of the greatest and most powerful kings that have made the name of Rajputana resplendent in the annals of India.” “The Surya Vamsha is the most famous of the ruling families of India, and the most celebrated of its many branches is the Guhilot family, which has ruled Mewar without a break for nearly fourteen centuries. The land of Chittorgarh rightfully deserved not only Pratap Singh Sisodia, but also the illustrious Suryavanshi Kshatriya clan of Guhilots. Yet the prajas of Mewar proved that the people get the rulers they deserve. Rare is the Prince who gives up power, rarer still is the populace that restores the rightful ruler. He refused to make any compromises.” Background Raja Ravi Varma’s rendition of Rana Pratap He roamed the forests like a fugitive, took shelter in caves, went hungry, saw his children eat grassbread and his queen suffer the life of a tribal woman. “The ordeals he went through to defend his pride makes a hair raising story.
Pranams to Pratap Singh, the mighty Maharana of Mewar, and Kshatriya veer Shiromani of the Kali Age. Therefore, for the spirit of Rajadharma to be restored, a shining example of it must be given due honour.
They become slaves to pleasure, and those who promise to give it. Without integrity, without self-respect, people let alone a leader, cannot lead lives of dignity. But he who can barter away everything truly has nothing. The rulers of today (as well as their “rajgurus”) gladly betray their Rajadharmaall in the name of “chanakya niti”. And yet, in the lust for power, modern Hinduspay nominal respect to his name but fail to implement his legacy. Such was this symbol of kshatriyata that he commands respect to this day. The Patriot who literally would rather eat grass than give his daughters to mlecchas. The King who risked his kingdom in war to preserve Dharma. The Prince who gave up the throne to preserve family unity. Thus it is proved that the sword doesn’t belong to Maharana Pratap.Īttached below are the screenshots and links of the websites that has featured the viral photo.The very name has attained an almost sacred quality from the length and breadth of Bharatvarsh. Sword-Site also mentions that the sword belongs to Boabdil and states that on the hilt there is an inscription with the motto of the Nasrid dynasty: La ghaliba ila Allah (No Victor but God). A website called Sword-Site also has the image goes on to explain the inscription on the sword. Both the sites state that the sword and scabbard belonged to Boabdil (Muhammad XII), Nasir of Granada. It was featured in an article under Islamic History on WordPress and a website called Imgur. The viral photo was found on various websites. Upon doing a simple reverse image search, it was found that the sword belonged to Muhammad XII. The sword doesn’t belong to Mahrana Pratap. The Sword of Sri MahaRana Pratap used during the Haldi Ghat Battle. Great Maharana pratap was almost 7.5 feet, he had a 72 kg armor, a spear weighing 80 kg, two swords weighing 25 kg both means that he carried 206 kg in the battlefield and yet was a ferocious fighter. But Sadly there is not much mentioned in our History books.Ĭourtesy: Ramaswamy. Imagine the calibre of this warrior in battlefield.
The sword of Maharana Pratap weighs around 50 Kgs each, he used to offer one Sword to the Enemy when his enemy would be disarmed.
