Answer:

Again it was religion that came in the way of politics. Mughal emperors like Jahangir, Akbar and Shah Jahan were preachers of Islam, but they were not against the Hindus too. However, it was different with Aurangzeb.

Aurangzeb was not at all tolerant of the Hindus like his ancestors. He was against Hinduism so he decided to crown a Muslim on the throne of Marwar. It was just after the death of childless King Jaswant Singh. However, Ajit Singh, the child of Jaswat Singh was born after his unfortunate death. So when the Rathors of Marwar requested Aurangzeb to crown the heir, he refused straightforwardly. This enraged the Rajputs and they started their rebel against the brutal Emperor.

Answer:

Here is your answer.. check it and pls mark me as brainliest..

Explanation:

Initially, the Rajput rulers had been very supportive with all the Mughals, including that of Aurangzeb. However later, these Rajputs, who had earlier supported Aurangzeb in administrative and military affairs, became against him because of the religious policies introduced by Aurangzeb. Some of the most important warriors like that of Raja Jai Singh from Amer, or Jaswant Singh from mar war had earlier been some of the most important masabdars in times of Mughal rulers and Mughal rule. Jai Singh active supported shivaji about hid health and safety and brought him to the mughal court. However mirza helped him to flee away due to Hindu religious sentiments. The whole event came to light through Marathi Brahmans and ultimately Aurangzeb poisoned jai Singh in the year 1967. The place was Burhanpur. Guru Tegh Bahadur also shortly released. Later Aurangzeb announced that no Rajput would be allowed to work in his court. he reimposed Jazia tax and destroyed Hindu temple. All these events led the Rajputs to rebel against Aurangzeb.
