History of Bundi |
|
In 1193 AD when Prithvi Raj Chauhan was
defeated by Sultan Mohammed Ghauri, some Chauhan nobles seek shelter
in Mewar and became allies to the Rana while other warriors moved
towards the Chambal valley and overpowered the Meena and Bhil tribals
- thus establishing their own kingdom of Hadoti. Later, two branches
of Hadas formed two separate states of Kota and Bundi, on either side
of the River Chambal. |
