HI friends,

i got this information from net and want to share with all of you .I am sure you all will be disappointed😭 after reading it.so please drop in our replies

Prithviraj was a coward: NCERT book

"Prithviraj Chauhan was a coward who ran away to save his life during the second battle of Tarain with Mohammad Ghauri." "Jaichand (generally believed to be a traitor) was, in fact a 'hero' who gave up his life while fighting the forces of Ghauri." This is the "new" history that students of Class XI will learn under the CBSE and ICSE courses from this academic session. The revised history book, Medieval Indian History, published by NCERT, demolishes old beliefs and tramples over heroes of history. Edited by Prof. Satish Chandra, the fifth chapter of the book on Medieval History clearly states that Prithviraj Chauhan tried to run away from the battle, but was taken prisoner. The book says that when Prithviraj accepted the supremacy of Mohammad Ghauri, the latter allowed him to continue as ruler of Ajmer. Prithviraj was later killed on charges of treason, according to the book, which goes on to say that Jaichand's valour was unmatched and that he was killed while fighting the forces of Ghauri in Kannauj. History, till now, had taught that Jaichand was a coward and a traitor who first betrayed Prithviraj Chauhan, and then was drowned while trying to flee the forces of Ghauri (History of Rajasthan, page 156). The NCERT history book also demolishes the belief that the main cause of bitterness between Prithviraj and Jaichand was the fact that the latter's daughter Sanyogita had eloped with Prithviraj and that Jaichand never forgave them.

According to the new book, there were major political differences between the two kings and Sanyogita was not part of it.

I don't think NCERT has mentioned this in books. Some times earlier also I had read some thing like this in forum. But I don't think its true.

I am 110% sure that this info is wrong, the history books change as per the demands of the new elected government.
The central govt. probably didn't have any problems with such changes in the text books (shame on them 😡 😡 😡 ) and I hope this story is trashed out asap because these days people believe everything they read, hear, see etc. and it will not have a good impact on the future generation if our kids our misinformed about such important historical information...

I hope they repel this change and go back to the original story they started out with... 😊
