History of Jaisalmer

The History of Jaisalmer has an appeal of its own. Like all different urban areas of Rajasthan, Jaisalmer too has its own particular radiant past to gloat about. History of Jaisalmer draws vigorously from the historical backdrop of the Rajputana. The city is said to be established by one Raja Rawal Jaisal, a Bhatti Rajput ruler, in pretty nearly 1156 A D. Legends pass by that he did it on the command of a neighborhood loner named Eesaal. The raja pick Trikut slope as the new site for his fortress. This was on account of he suspected that his past house Luderwa (16 km from present Jaisalmer) was helpless towards conceivable adversary attack.

He was obviously annoyed with the Bhatti Rajput rulers on the grounds that they ceased and plundered one of his convoys containing illustrious coffer which was en route to Sind. The attack went on for around 9 long years and when the fall appeared to be famous the Rajput womenfolk of the city conferred Jauhar (self Immolation to stay away from disrespect).

It is said that Duda, the child of Raja Jaisimha, battled energetically in the fight however was overwhelmed after the savage hand to hand battle. He passed on battling. His relatives kept on decision the city. Despite the fact that they had a cheerful connection with the Mughal rulers in Delhi, they battled unsuccessfully with Emperor Humayun. Head Shah Jahan gave the privilege of administration to Sabala Simha, who had the illustrious support and had demonstrated astounding valor to win the Battle of Peshawar.

In the current period, Jaisalmer was still an extreme nut to split and was the last among the Rajputana royals to sign the ‘Instrument of Agreement’ with the British foundation.
