One of the most beloved names in the history of freedom struggles in India. This 16th century gentleman never approved Akbar – the ruling Mughal Emperor of that time as the Emperor of India. And hence there was no question of approving Akbar as the ruler of Rajputana. Maharana Pratap was probably the only Maharana who spent most of his life without an actual kingdom, fighting Akbar through the Aravali mountain ranges in Rajputana.
A raised front leg of Chetak – probably the only horse from the history whose name is remembered by generations suggests that Rana Pratap’s demise was due tot the injuries received in the battleground. Moti Magri is memorial to Maharana Pratap. If you dig a little deeper into history, you will realize why this man served as an inspiration to the leaders and freedom-lovers of the coming generations.
