Rani Durgavati (October 5, 1524 – June 24, 1564) was a ruling Queen of Gondwana from 1550 until 1564. She was born in the family of famous Gond Tribals Chandel Emperor Keerat Rai. She was born at the fort of Kalinjar(Banda, Uttar Pradesh) in Chandel Dynasty, which is famous in the Indian history for the defense of king Vidyadhar who repulsed the attacks of Mahmud of Ghazni. Rani Durgavati's achievements further enhanced the glory of her ancestral tradition of courage In 1542, she was married to Dalpat Shah, the eldest son of king Sangram Shah of RajgondDynasty. The Chandel and Rajgond dynasties were allied because of this marriage. This resulted in Keerat Rai gaining the help of the Gonds at the time of Muslim invasion of Sher Shah Suri.
She gave birth to a son in 1545 A.D. who was named Vir Narayan. Dalpat Shah died in 1550 and due to young age of Vir Narayan, Durgavati took the reins of the Gond kingdom. Diwan Beohar Adhar Simha and Minister Man Thakur helped the Rani in looking after the administration successfully and effectively. Rani moved her capital to Chauragarh in place of Singaurgarh. It was a fort of strategic importance situated on the Satpura hill range.
After the death of Sher Shah, Sujat Khan captured Malwa and was succeeded by his son Baz Bahadur in 1556. After ascending to the throne, he attacked Rani Durgavati but the attack was repulsed with heavy losses to his army.
In the year 1562, Akbar vanquished the Malwa ruler Baz Bahadur and annexed Malwaunder Mughal dominion. Consequently, the state boundary of Rani touched the Mughal Sultanate.
