HAPPY MAHARANA PRATAP JAYANTI 2023 WISHES, IMAGES, SMS, QUOTES, STATUS, MESSAGES: The name of Maharana Pratap, who was a legendary Rajput ruler, is synonymous with bravery. Born on May 9, 1540 as Pratap Singh I, into the ruling Sisodia-Rajput clan of Rajasthan’s Mewar, Maharana Pratap is one of the most famous rulers from the desert state. Many in his home state also observe the day on June 2, in accordance with the Hindu calendar
He is remembered for his resistance to Akbar’s army in the Battle of Haldighati (1576), which led to the loss of Chittor Fort and much of the eastern belt controlled by the Mewars. The Mughals, however, failed to capture Maharana Pratap. He continued guerrilla warfare, forcing them to retreat.
Maharana Pratap eventually regained much of the territories, except Chittorgarh. The Rajput ruler’s horse Chetak is also equally famous. Chetak fought with Maharana Pratap in the Battle of Haldighati against the Mughal armies led by Man Singh I of Amber. Chetak got impaled by an elephant but carried Maharana Pratap to safety before succumbing to his injuries.
