Maharana pratap 8th october 2015
His father Raja Bhagwan Das was send to the Rana's court in October 1573, to talk peace with Rana Pratap Singh and offer him Mughal Alliance.
He arrived at Gogunda on June 1573, most probably to know that the capital and the royal family had shifted to Kumbhalgarh. He was ordered by the Mughal Emperor Akbar to march to Udaipur ( or Gogunda) to meet the Rana in person and offer him a peace treaty with the Mughals. Maan Singh of Amer had been posted at Salumber which was a Mewar province prior to the Chittorgarh seize after his expedition to Dungarpur. In 1572, Udai Singh died, leaving the throne and struggle to his heir Rana Pratap Singh. The Seize of Chittorgarh saw many Mewari Bravehearts doing Saka or Jauhar while 30,000 civilians were killed brutally in a massacre. From to till Udai Singh's death the Mughals had occupied half of Mewar, through their emcampments. During this time, with a few lesser known provinces, the Rana Of Mewar, Udai Singh II had refused Mughal supremacy or alliance. He had taken over other Rajput provinces either by war or by alliance. Akbar had invaded and won Mewar's glorious fort of Chittorgarh in 1568. Jalaluddin Mohammad, Humayun's son came to throne, in 1556, when Mewar was again a stronghold under Rana Udai Singh II. Chittor too fell shortly to Banbir, Vikramaditya's uncle who assassinated him. Things changed in Agra for Humayun after that. Humayun however won back the fort later, and gave the fort to Rana Vikramaditya forcing him to accept Mughal supremacy. Contrary to popular belief, Humayun had rested on his way from Gaur (Bengal) to Chittorgarh, which forced the Rani to commit Jauhar. The relationship was further questioned when at the invasion from Saurastra Sanga's widow Rani Karnavati had written to Mughal Emperor Humayun for help sending him a rakhi. Long before the Mughals under Akbar, Mewar under Rana Sangram Singh had successfully managed to keep the "Turk Invaders" under Babar at bay, fighting 17 wars big and small. Mewar was one of Rajputana's strongest individual kingdoms along with the likes of Marwar and Kacchawar (Jaipur).
