  • Maharana Pratap (Pratap Singh I ) born on May 9th, 1540, was a great Hindu Rajput ruler of Mewar, Rajasthan. 
  • He hailed from the Sisodiya clan of Rajputs.
  • He was titled as “Mewari Rana” and was notable for his military resistance against the expansionism of the Mughal Empire.
  • He was known for his participation in the Battle of Haldighati and Battle of Dewair.
  • The Battle of Haldighati  was fought on 18 June 1576 between Pratap Singh and Akbar’s forces led by Man Singh I of Amer. 
  • The Mughals were victorious and inflicted significant casualties among the Mewaris but failed to capture the Maharana.
  • In 1582, Pratap Singh attacked and occupied the Mughal post at Dewair (or Dewar) in the Battle of Dewair. 
  • This led to the automatic liquidation of all 36 Mughal military outposts in Mewar. 
  • After this defeat, Akbar stopped his military campaigns against Mewar. 
  • The victory of Dewair was a crowning glory for the Maharana, with James Tod describing it as the “Marathon of Mewar”.
  • Pratap died of injuries sustained in a hunting accident at Chavand in January 1597.
  • In 2007, a statue of Maharana Pratap was unveiled in the Parliament of India.
