Let's see what our beloved secular Akbar did in Chittor siege of 1567-68 AD. Once he broke into the fort with his army. Tabaqat-i-Nasiri of Bakshi Nizamuddin Ahmad says that he gave orders of general massacre. I repeat, "general massacre" i.e. kill everyone. Not combat armed men.
Result? Death of 25000 civilians+8000 Rajput combatants. This in a fort Akbar had already won 👏. Once ghazi Akbar was done with his blood lust. He wanted to see his report card. Janeus from fallen soldiers, civilians were collected & weighted for kill estimate. Weight=74.5 manns
To eternalize the memory of this deed the number 74.5 is accursed and marked on banker's letter in Rajasthan. It is the strongest of seals, for "the sin of the sack of Chittor" is invoked on he who violates a letter under the safeguard of this sacrosanct number.
Once ghazi Akbar left Chittor, he couldn't control his glee of butchering so many kafirs in latest jihad. So, he had a letter issued, to sing his own peans. It is called Fatehnama-i-Chittor.
Following is the Fatehnama-i-Chittor translated and annotated by Ishtiaq Ahmed Zilli, as part of - Proceedings of Indian History Congress, New Delhi, 1972. Page 350-61.
Buckle up to see the bright face of your secular hero.
So, this was the famous Indian secular experiment, as heard from that horse's mouth itself. Truly, Akbar was great!
