prithvi falling in love with sanyo was not a mistake but the way prithvi lost himself completely after falling in love with sanyo was a big mistake which the history of india would never forgive him
1) prithvi was in love with sanyo so much that he used to neglect his duties.-
It was not just normal duties of king.. but also during war, prithvi used to forget his duties. Like when there was a war with kannoj, prithvi send his generals to fight with jaichand. He then disguised himself and went and met sanyo. This war was a very difficult one.. n it was because of punder n kanha chauhan that they won the war. It was clearly said that his army was shocked when they did not see their king. How can king ever do this. Ask his army to go n fight because it provided a good opportunity to meet his lady love.
2)Ghori attacked at night
Though it was rajput custom that they used to fight only during day, it was prithvi's fault that he did not think abt such a situation. And we cannot say that fighting at night was never heard of. Chanakya's artashastra describes this technique clearly to defeat ur enemy - "send one part of ur army to the enemy's camp and make them fight.. so that by morning their soldiers r tired. Then attack them in the morning with the rest of ur army"
3)Sanyo prevented messages from reaching prithvi-
This was one of the major mistake of sanyo. Prithvi agreed to spend one month with her(sanyo had forced prithvi to build a separate palace for her). It was during this time that ghori was planning to attack ajmer. When prithvi's ministers came to know that ghori was advancing towards ajmer, they went to alert prithvi. However sanyo stopped all these messages from reaching him because she did not want anyone to disturb them. Its true that sanyo didn't know the matter was of so much importance, but still she shld have known that for a king his kingdom comes first- not his wife. Finally chand had to tell to samar singh, n it was samar singh who was able to enter the palace n see prithvi. Though prithi arranged his army soon n went for war along with samar singh, ghori had advanced a lot inside prithvi's kingdom.
