Maharana Pratap’s only concern was to immediately free his motherland from the clutches of the Mughals. Maharana Pratap, however, did not get distracted or lose heart nor did he ever say that he was weak as compared to Akbar. The first problem was to gather enough soldiers to fight a face-to-face war which would have required vast money but Maharana Pratap’s coffers were empty whereas Akbar had a large army, a lot of wealth and a lot more at his disposal. Shakti Singh and Jagammal, the two brothers of Maharana Pratap had joined Akbar. Maharana Pratap’s enemy had surrounded Mewar at all its’ boundaries. Unbreakable Oath of Maharana Pratap to free the ‘Motherland’ Maharana Pratap Singh too gave due respect to the wish of the chieftains and the people and accepted the responsibility of leading the people of Mewar. Hence it was collectively decided that Jagammal would have to sacrifice the throne. Besides they were of the opinion that Jagammal did not possess qualities like courage and self-respect which were essential in a leader and king. Uday Singh appointed before his death, Jagammal, the son of his youngest wife as his heir although Pratap Singh was elder to Jagammal but he was ready to give up his rights like Prabhu Ramchandra and go away from Mewar but the chieftains did not at all agree with their king’s decision.

Self-respect and virtuous behaviour were the main qualities of Pratap Singh. Rana Uday Singh, the Second, of Mewar had 33 children.

This is a holy remembrance of his valour ! Maharana Pratap, is a name worth remembering to begin one’s day with.
