Thanks for the post rati. ...heartiest b'day wishes n respect for the great maharana who fought for his motherland against all odds...

today is also Rabindranath Tagore's b'day the first noble laureate from india. ..

Yeah, it's Tagore Ji's bday too. What great men this holy soil of ours have given. Exemplary in desh Bhakti, valor, intelligence or spiritualism. This glorious Karma Bhumi (the only country in the whole works) has also given birth to so many great Saints and Seers!
Jai Mathrubhoomi! I am sure wherever Maharana is he would be happy to hear this slogan - the best treat for him on his bday:-)

Dear Abhay, thank so much for sharing and dropping in the bday celeb. Will be even more happy if you could share this coin as well;-). And it's never late to read to about Maharana, you do not need a reason. So pump in with all that you have when you get your first free time. There are a whole lot of us waiting greedily. Remember :-)

@Abhay--- Thank you for sharing that information !!😊

Read something interesting on a website...Here it is---

<h2>Maharana Pratap</h2>

Over the next half-century, most other Rajput rulers allowed themselves to be wooed the Mughals; Mewar alone held out. In 1567 Emperor Akbar decided to teach it a lesson: he attacked Chittorgarh razed it to the ground. Five years later Maharana Pratap (reigned 1572-97) came to rule Mewar - a king without a capital. He continued to defy Akbar, and in 1576, confronted the imperial armies at Haldighati.

The battle ended in a stalemate and Maharana Pratap and his followers withdrew to the craggy hills of Mewar, from where they continued to harrass the Mughals through guerilla warfare for the next twenty years. Maharana Pratap made his descendants vow that they would not sleep on beds, nor live in palaces, nor eat off metal utensils, until Chittorgarh had been regained.In fact, right into the 20th century the maharanas of Mewar continued to place a leaf platter under their regular utensils and a reed mat under their beds in symbolic continuance of this vow.

Hey Rinall, a very happy birthday to Maharana. Thanks so much for the post. It's a delight to read many a times.

BTW, Rinall and Rati, where is the party? Where are the cakes and sweets? I am not good at emoticons, else would have thrown up bday bash for you all.
