Question

What was the reasons for the defeat of Prithviraj Chauhan ?

Answer 1

Answer:

Ghori's desperadoes were no match to Prithvi Raj's brave patriotic Hindus. The former dared not face Prithvi Raj but the traitor Jaichand Rathor of Kannauj offered to underwrite Ghori's raid if he came and crossed swords with Prithviraj. A fierce battle ensued.

Answer 2

The battle of Tarain was lost by Prithviraj due to three main reasons: Lack of unity among the Rajputs meant that they did not have overwhelming numerical superiority which had helped them win the first battle.
