Question

How did the Rajput rule come to an end? Why?Answer the given question.

Answer 1

Prithviraj Chauhan ruled the northwestern parts of India during 1178 CE to 1192 CE. Most of present day Rajasthan, Haryana, Delhi, Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh were under his rule during this time. His capital was Ajayameru which is the present day Ajmer.

He was a valiant and fearless leader who fought alongside his troops in most battles. He fought off Muhammed of Ghor who belonged to the Ghurid dynasty.

In 1192 CE, at the battle of Tarain he was defeated by the Ghurids. From there on, the Islamic rulers started asserting their military might over India. The rulers who followed Prithviraj Chauhan were not really powerful and failed against the powerful armies of Islamic rulers.

Answer 2

Akbar's diplomatic policy regarding the Rajputs was later damaged by the intolerant rules introduced by his great-grandson Aurangzeb. A prominent example of these rules included the re-imposition of Jaziya, which had been abolished by Akbar.[40]However, despite imposition of Jaziya Aurangzeb's army had a high proportion of Rajput officers in the upper ranks of the imperial army and they were all exempted from paying Jaziya[48] The Rajputs then revolted against the Mughal empire. Aurangzeb's conflicts with the Rajputs, which commenced in the early 1680s, henceforth became a contributing factor towards the downfall of the Mughal empire.[49][40]

In the 18th century, the Rajputs came under influence of the Maratha empire.[49][50][51] By the late 18th century, the Rajput rulers begin negotiations with the East India Company and by 1818 all the Rajput states had formed an alliance with the company.[52]
