Explanation:

In the first battle of Tarain, Sultan Md. Ghori was humbled by Raja Prithviraj and he barely managed to escape and return to Ghazni. Ever since then he was desperate for revenge and was secretly making preparations for his second invasion.

he First Battle of Tarain took place in 1191 CE.

During 1190–1191 CE, Muhammad of Ghor invaded the Chahamana territory, and captured Tabarhindah or Tabar-e-Hind (identified with Bathinda). He placed it under the charge of Zia-ud-din, the Qazi of Tulak, supported by 1200 horsemen. When Prithviraj learned about this, marched towards Tabarhindah with his feudatories, including Govindaraja of Delhi. According to the 16th-century Muslim historian Firishta, his force comprised 200,000 horses and 3,000 elephants.[48]

Muhammad's original plan was to return to his base after conquering Tabarhindah, but when he heard about Prithviraj's march, he decided to put up a fight. He set out with an army, and encountered Prithviraj's forces at Tarain.[48] In the ensuing battle, Prithviraj's army decisively defeated the Ghurids. Muhammad of Ghor was injured and forced to retreat.[49]

Prithviraj did not pursue the retreating Ghurid army, not wanting to invade hostile territory or misjudge Ghori's ambition.[50] He only besieged the Ghurid garrison at Tabarhindah, which surrendered after 13 months of siege.[51]
