Nagarjuna, one of his cousins, had revolted against Prithviraj Chauhan’s coronation. Many Hindu rulers attempted to exert influence over the Chahamana dynasty in 1180, and Prithviraj Chauhan was challenged. As a result, Prithviraj ruled from both Ajmer and Delhi. After hearing about his bravery and courage, his grandfather Anangpal, the ruler of Delhi, declared him heir to the throne. Prithviraj, who was still a minor at the time, ascended the throne with the help of his mother, who served as regent. He possessed the ability to hit a target solely based on its sound.Īfter his father, Someshvara, died in 1177 CE, Prithviraj ascended the throne when he was only 11 years old. He was also a skilled archer, according to the report. Prithviraj was well educated and knew six languages, according to ‘Prithviraja Vijaya’. In modern-day Gujarat, he was born to Chauhan King Someshvara and his queen, Karpura Devi. The description of these planetary positions later assisted Indian Indologist Dasharatha Sharma in determining Prithviraj’s birth year, which is thought to be 1166 CE. It does, however, mention some planetary positions at the time of Prithviraj’s birth. Prithviraj III was born on the 12th day of Jyeshtha, the Hindu calendar’s second month, which corresponds to May – June on the Gregorian calendar, according to the famous eulogistic Sanskrit poem ‘Prithviraja Vijaya.’ The author of ‘Prithviraja Vijaya’ does not specify the year of his birth. Particularly well-known are his battles with Shahabuddin Muhammad Ghori. He went on several campaigns to expand his territory as king, and he earned a reputation as a valiant and courageous warrior. He could hit targets accurately even as a small child based solely on their sounds. He was a brave and intelligent child with exceptional military abilities. Prithviraj began to show signs of his greatness at a young age.
Prithviraj Chauhan is widely regarded as a courageous Indian king who stood up to Muslim rulers.
His elopement with Samyukta (Sanyogita), the daughter of Jai Chandra Rathod, the Gahadvala king of Kannauj, in 1175 is a popular romantic tale in India, and it is one of the subjects of the Prithviraj Raso, an epic poem composed by Chauhan’s court poet and friend Chand Bardai. He unified the Rajputs against Muslim invasions and controlled much of what is now Rajasthan and Haryana. His maternal grandfather Anangpal III of the Tomara dynasty in Delhi gave him Delhi. At the age of 20, he ascended to the throne and ruled from the twin capitals of Ajmer and Delhi. He was a member of the Rajput Chauhan clan. Before Hemu, Prithviraj Chauhan was the last independent Hindu king to sit on the throne of Delhi.
