Chittor Ke Jauhar Ke Ashko Se, Jiska Rajya Baitha Tha, Uss Pratap ne Kabhi Bhi, Dusra Jauhar Na Hone Di. On the dawn of 23rd of February 1568, Chittorgarh faced it's third Saka and Jauhar, after being seized by Mughal Emperor Akbar for three months. It is said that 30,000 civilians were massacred and about 8000 soldiers, men and women fought the mighty army of 30,000. At the end of the day, as the blood of the Mewaris soaked their motherland, Chittor had fallen. From his coronation in the year 1572, to his death in 1597, Maharana Pratap had tried in vain to get back his childhood home under the flag of Mewar. He had however vowed and kept his promise, to not let another Jauhar happen in his kingdom. Among the people who died in the seize were Jaimal Rathore, Kalla, Patta, his wife Jiwa, and Rawat Chundawat. #thisdaythatyear #jauhar #historypost #historyajtdl #ajourneytodiscoverlife #maharanapratap #akbar #mughal
