महाराणा सांगा: द हिन्दूपत (हरविलास सारदा - मेवाड़ साम्राज्य एवं खानवा महायुद्ध इतिहास)

Maharana Sāngā.

This battle is said to have taken place at
the hill of Mālmagra.¹
Bhoj’s son, Rai Mal, and grandsons,
Shankar Singh, Samant Singh, Sakhra and
Bhan, left Lanch and went to Kumbhalgarh.
Kanwar Prithviraj offered them the fief of
Desuri, asking them to wrest it from its
Madrecha Chauhān chief. Rai Mal’s wife
being a daughter of that chieftain, Rai Mal
showed unwillingness to undertake the
expedition. Finding, however, that Prithviraj
was unwilling to help him on any other
terms, Rai Mal accepted the offer. He with
his sons went to his father-in-law’s house and
treacherously murdered Sanda and the other
Madrecha Rajputs and obtained from
Prithviraj a patta for Desuri with its 140
villages.² The Thakurs of Jilwada and
¹ Mehta Nainsi in his Chronicles says that Bhoj
Dipawat had taken up his residence in the town of Las
Munawad of Sirohi.
² The grant included Agaya, Bandrot, Dhamyagaon,
Sewantri, Desuri, Dholana, each with twelve villages
attached to it, as well as Ana, Karanawas, Bansda,
Moonpura, Keshuli, Ganthi, Godla and Chauvadia.
Mehta Nainsi gives further details of these
villages.
