Lot of People know the Story of ๐๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ด๐ฉ๐ฎ๐ข, and How he Refused the Throne for Pleasure of His Father.
What if I Tell you, That There was Another Modern Day ๐๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ด๐ฉ๐ฎ๐ข, Merely 600 Years Ago?
**Early 1400s (1400-1416)**
Rana Lakha was Ruling As 3rd Maharana of Mewar.
He was in His Advanced years, with His Sons Comfortably Settled, when a Marriage Proposal Came From King Of Mandir to Marry his Daughter to Son to Lakha, Rao Chunda.
At that Time, Chunda was Not Present in Mewar.
His Father, Lakha informed the Girl's Brother and Joked
"Nobody would send a Marriage Proposal to an Old Man Like me"
When chunda Heard this, he Thought that his Father still Had a Secret Desire to Marry, and Declined the Proposal.
Chunda Proposed that Marriage Proposal must be Accepted by His Father.
Girl's Brother, Ran Mal, Agreed Only one 1 Condition.
"Chunda will have to Give Up His Claim on The Throne of Mewar"
Chunda Agreed Without Hesitation.
Marriage was celebrated and They had a Son Named Mokal
When Mokal was 5 Years old, Rana Lakha Decided to Go for The Final Battle of His Life.
He was To Fight in Gaya (Bihar) to remove Jaziya.
But he wanted to Nominate a Successor before his Departure.
When He asked Chunda, Chunda replied: "Mokal deserves Throne of Chittor"
He Also Suggested that Coronation should be Done Before Rana's Departure.
Chunda was the First to Pay Homage to 5yr Old Rana Mokal.
Then, Rana Lakha Proceeded for Gaya, where he Defeated the Afghans and Freed the Holy Land, But Lost his life in 1421.
His Youngest Wife (mother of Mokal) prepared for Sati, But was Persuaded against it by Chunda Himself.
Chunda argued that Since New Maharana is Only 5yrs Old, Hence Queen Mother Must Stay behind and Act as Queen Regent.
Queen, Hans Bai, was Surprised at Display of Loyalty by Rao Chunda.
Pleased with His Exemplary Conduct, She declared That Chunda will be The First Councillor and Will Confirm Grants Issued by Maharana.
