![Prithvi_Raj_Chauhan[1]](https://neelkanth.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/prithvi-raj-chauhan1.jpg)
Many a queries are there on my earlier article ‘Prithviraj Chauhan -his last days’. Infact this very article was written by me to meet queries of this sort only by my readers. Now that I have been able to collect some more astonishing material on this through some new additions to my library, feedback by my readers and certain features on the subject appearing in media channels, I am working on completing a new writeup titled as ‘Prithviraj Chauhan -his last days (3) which hopefully should meet different questions on the topic raised by large number of my readers. The article is tobe published shortly.

Prithviraj Chauhan, the last ruler of Chauhan dynasty to sit on the throne of Delhi, was born in 1168 as the son of Someshwar Chauhan, the king of Ajmer. He was a brilliant child and very sharp at learning the military skills. He had the skill of hitting the target only on the basis of its sound
He expanded his empire, during this time Mahmud Ghori attacked India in 1191 and he was defeated at the first battle of Tarain. After defeating the army of Mahmud Ghori he was asked to attack the retreating army but in true Rajput tradition he refused to do so as it did not conform to the fair war rules. As a result Mahmud ghori again attacked India and in the second battle of Tarain Prithviraj Chauhan was defeated and captured.
And because in first battle pritviraj left muhammad with his life thats why gauri never tried to kill chauhan even just made him blind .He was treated very badly, his eyes were burnt with red-hot irons and he was made blind. But Prithviraj did not lose courage. Helped by his court poet and friend Chand Bardai, he is believed to kill Mahmud ghori with his “shabdabhedi baan”. His skill of hitting the target just on the basis of sound made by it come handy. and during the archery competition organized by Mahmud ghori, he displayed his skill. When Mahmud ghori praised him he heard his voice and attacked him. Mahmud ghori was killed. In order to escape death at the hands of enemies he and his friend Chand Bardai stabbed each other.
