Abstract

The article discusses Rajasthan Deputy Chief Minister Diya Kumari's assertion that Maharana Pratap won the Battle of Haldighati against Mughal Emperor Akbar in the 16th century. Speaking at an event to commemorate Maharana Pratap's birth anniversary, she highlighted her role in changing the historical plaque at Haldighati to reflect this claim, which previously stated that he lost the battle. Kumari criticized mainstream historical narratives influenced by Mughal and colonial perspectives and emphasized the need to present what she considers the "true and correct history of Rajasthan." Her comments follow similar controversial statements made by Rajasthan Governor Haribhau Bagde regarding the marriage between Jodha Bai and Akbar. [Extracted from the article]
