Talk:Maharana Pratap

Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 20 January 2026

In the Reconquest of Mewar section, the First Battle of Dewair in 1582 is fully omitted without a single mention of it. This battle was the reason why the Maharana was able to take most of Mewar back from the Mughals. The Maharana's army chased the Mughal army till amet, which is 32kms away from Dewair. Many sources state that Mughal commander Bahlol Khan was vertically cut in half along with his horse by the Maharana in Battle. Although only Rajasthani sources state this, the fact that 36 Mughal Garrisons in Mewar surrendered after this battle means that either the victory was decisive enough, or Maharana Pratap actually cut him in half vertically so the morale of Mughal forces totally dwindled after seeing such a sight or hearing about it from soldiers that fleed the battle. The omission of this battle is a critical failure from wikipedia's part, because this was Maharana's greatest and most decisive battle which enabled him to take back and keep the control of Mewar for the rest of his life. This wikipedia article is useless without the mention and description of Battle of Dewair.
