Maharana Pratap’s Spirit Lives On, Says PM

In his message on social media platform X, PM Modi praised the legendary warrior’s bravery in defending the country’s honour.

He said that Maharana Pratap’s life, dedicated to the nation, would forever remain a guiding light for all Indians.

Widespread Tributes From BJP Leadership

Senior BJP leaders across India also remembered the Mewar ruler’s valour.

Rajasthan Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma described Maharana Pratap as the ‘powerful roar of Indian self-respect’ and a ‘Veer Shiromani’ who symbolised sacrifice and patriotism.

He hailed the warrior’s democratic values and unwavering resolve to protect religion, country, and dignity.

CM Adityanath has previously criticised what he termed as historical distortion during the Congress era, alleging that Maharana Pratap’s heroism was downplayed in favour of Mughal emperor Akbar.

A Warrior Who Inspired The World

Union Defence Minister Rajnath Singh reiterated Maharana Pratap’s global influence.

He said the warrior had become a symbol of resistance for freedom fighters and even inspired Vietnamese people during their struggle against the United States in the Vietnam War.

“Maharana Pratap’s name evoked strong emotions of love and sacrifice for the motherland,” Singh had stated in an earlier address.

A Legacy Of Courage And Sacrifice

Maharana Pratap, born on 9 May 1540, ruled the kingdom of Mewar in present-day Rajasthan.

He is best remembered for his heroic resistance against Mughal emperor Akbar, particularly during the Battle of Haldighati in 1576.

As the nation marked his birth anniversary, political leaders and citizens alike honoured the memory of a ruler who placed duty above comfort and sacrifice above surrender.
