Unable to avenge brutal destruction of Chitod,wanderingin the forest, #UdaySing died of grief in 1572

His son #RanaPratapSingh / #MaharanaPratap immediately ascended the non-existent imaginary throne of Chitod.
Instead of accepting humiliating friendship with Akbar #MaharanaPratap chose miseries-enimity, maintaining Rajput Pride
As Chitod was in hands of Muslims
Rana Pratap Singh kept his capital moving with him through villages & towns & gradually rescued a large portion of his kingdom

Prince Salim marched against #MaharanaPratap in battle of Haldighat at #Akbar ‘s orders
Fighting,Rana rode straight at Salim’s elephant
Chetak planted his legs on its trunk &
Rana’s spear wizzed past Salim’s throat
On missing mark,Rana retreated with speed mixing with his army
