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

Maharana Sāngā.
the Maharana came down swiftly upon
Idar. Nizam-ul-mulk (now entitled Mubariz-
ul-mulk) was alarmed at the news of Sāngā's
advance towards Idar, and forgetting his
vaunt, fled to the safe refuge of the fort of
Ahmadnagar. The Maharana arrived at
Idar the day following Mubariz-ul-mulk's
flight. After reinstating Rai Mal on the
throne of Idar,¹ thus restoring his patri-
mony to him, the Maharana started in
pursuit of Mubariz-ul-mulk and laid siege to
Ahmadnagar. Dunger Singh Chauhan, a
notable Rajput officer of the Maharana's
army² was seriously wounded in the assault.
¹ The Maharana demolished the great mosque at
Idar and built a temple in its place.
मेलैदल सबलकलाधर मोकळ ।
नांम सुणैं सुरताणा नाद ॥
ईडर थकी मजीत ऊथापे ।
पै इडर थपया प्रसाद ॥
(O! powerful Rana Sāngā, following the example
of Mokal, thou subjugateth Sultans and listeneth to their
humble voice. Thou hast demolished the mosque of
Idar and built in its place a temple).
² Mehta Nainsi says that Dungersi was a great
Rajput, and had remained in Vagadh (Dungarpur) for
some time and that Maharana Sāngā conferred Badnor
on him. He adds that his sons and nephews all lost their
lives in the siege of Ahmadnagar.
