#Sanga is arguably the bravest of Ranas who sat on throne of Mewar. His victories over all Muslim Sultans are historical facts.
But, not many know that Sanga had 2 elder brothers who were more than a match for him.
#PrithviRaj & Jaimal !

#PrithviRaj was the bravest of 13 sons of Rana Raimal, most impetuous & reckless.
Mewar chronicles speak of him with awe & persistent fear till he lived. He was exiled by his father for his violent conduct. In fact, #Sanga fled Mewar & lived as a shepherd in Marwar.

#PrithviRaj went to Kumbhalgarh & established himself as the virtual ruler. Entire Godwad was under him. He wrested back 'Toda' from Lalla Khan Pathan & defeated the Subedar of Ajmer who came to Pathan's help. Settled the Solankis at Desuri (Devsuri). Jaimal stayed with him.
He assisted his father in the victory over the Sultan of Mandu, Nasiruddin Khilji. He defeated his father's cousins Surajmal & Sarangdev who had gone to Mandu against Raimal. His character is reflected in his conduct. Two episodes define him, one at Girnar & other at Sirohi.
His aunt #RamaDe was married to #MandalikJadhav of GIRNAR who illtreated her. On knowing this, PrithviRaj went to Girnar, humiliated Mandalik & took RamaDe with him. She lived all her life at Kumbhalgarh, Charbhuja Temple was built by her. #Javar was given to her as Jagir.
He met his end in unfortunate manner. Sister AnandBai was married to Jagmal Deora of Sirohi, who abused her. He attacked Sirohi & surprised Jagmal. Anand begged for Jagmal's life. He forgave him but was poisoned by Jagmal & died on way to Kumbhalgarh. JSanga was called to throne.
