[raw]?
[Died] 1192
King of the Chauhanid dynasty of the Rajputs in India. In 1191, he led a combined Rajput army to stop an invasion by Muhammad (→Muhammad Ghori) of the Ghorid dynasty, but was defeated and captured and killed the following year. This paved the way for Muslim rule in India. His love affair with the beautiful daughter of King Jaichand of Kannauj is sung in many narrative poems, one of which is the masterpiece of early Hindi literature, Prithbirājraso (by Chand Bardāi).
