Bappa Rawal (713 to 753)
Bappa Rawal was born as Kalbhoj in 713 AD. His father, Rawal Mahendra and all other male members were assassinated in a battle with the Bheels of Idar (a city in present Gujarat). He was brought up by his mother with the help of loyal Bheel attendants. It was Bheel tribe, who taught Bappa Rawal military warfare skills. In 734 AD, at the age of 21, Bappa Rawal defeated Man Mori, who ruled Chittor, and conquered the Chittor fort. He was eighth ruler of the Guhilot Rajput dynasty, but he didn’t continue the name of his dynasty of seven generations, when he came to the throne. Instead, he established Mewar kingdom, which lasted for 1250 years (728 AD-1950 AD), according to Ekalinga Purana.
Muhammad Bin Qasim had conquered Afghanistan and Iran. After the fall of Raja Dahir Sen, rule of Arabs was established in Sindh. Temples and civilizational heritages were destroyed. Muhammad Bin Qasim’s successor Junayd Al Rahman moved beyond Sindh towards eastern India with large army plundering several cities in southern Rajasthan and Gujrat. A series of wars, which were called “The Battle of Rajasthan,” were fought between regional rulers of North-Western India and invaders of Arabs in 738 AD.
It was Bappa Rawal, who unified smaller states of Ajmer and Jaisalmer by creating a confederacy of warriors. United Hindu kings under the leadership of Bappa Rawal of Mewar and Jaysima Varman of the Rashtrakuta Empire fought a series of battles on borders on modern Sindh & Rajasthan. Leading the confederacy Bappa Rawal decimated the invaders of Arab and chased their army into the deep desert beyond Ghazni, a city in present Afghanistan. Most of the Arabs were killed in the battles. To fortify the North West Frontier, Bappa Rawal built a town named #Rawal, which is still surviving in Pakistan today, and made it his military base. From military base in Rawal Bappa Rawal had launched more than 15 attacks into Ghazni, Afghanistan expanding the kingdom of Mewar boundary up to Iran. The ferocity and bravery of Bappa Rawal was so astounding that Arabs didn’t dare to attack prosperous India for centuries . Bappa Rawal not only liberated Sindh from Arabs, but he ruled entire north western frontier on a vast geographical area deep into central Asia from Sindh, Baluchistan, Ghazni, Kandhar Khorasan, Turan and Iran administering from Mewar.
Bappa Rawal ruled his vast empire before he took to spiritual path in 753 AD to submit himself into the devotion of God Shiva. Great warriors like #RanaSanga, (Rana Sangram Singh), #MaharanaPratap and #RanaUdaySingh are all Bappa Rawal’s descendants.
The history that we learn in academia gives a consistent message that Islamic invaders destroyed and defeated every Indian King. This Marxist version of history is nothing but a pack of lies.
