On January 19, a chorus of admiration rose from India’s political echelons honoring Maharana Pratap’s punyatithi. Chief ministers, union ministers, and party leaders flooded X with posts glorifying the Mewar sovereign’s legendary self-respect, warrior ethos, and sacrificial spirit for Bharat Mata.
Starting strong, Uttarakhand CM Pushkar Singh Dhami declared Pratap the undying icon of chivalry and fortitude. His detailed message recalled how Pratap’s uncompromised dignity amid trials serves as a beacon for posterity in service to the nation.
Bihar’s Nitish Kumar offered solemn pranams, framing Pratap’s biography as history’s finest model of honor, martyrdom, and territorial devotion—a clarion call to imbibe his martial legacy.
Madhya Pradesh CM Mohan Yadav’s tribute pulsed with youthful appeal: Pratap, the paragon of patriotism and grit, whose battles forever mentor the coming generations.
Former MP CM and current Union Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan painted a vivid portrait of Pratap as the life-giver for motherland’s glory. ‘Eternal glory to your heroic chronicles,’ he proclaimed, vowing perpetual reverence.
Congress MP Randeep Singh Surjewala evoked Mewar’s tiger, a paragon of penance and bravery whose epics will galvanize souls eternally. UP BJP president Pankaj Chaudhary closed the circle, saluting the eternal guardian who epitomized sacrifice for sovereignty.
Delving deeper into history, Maharana Pratap’s reign (1572-1597) was a saga of guerrilla warfare against Mughal might. Post-Haldighati, he reclaimed much of his territory, proving resilience trumps raw power. His horse Chetak’s legendary leap over a ravine remains folklore. Leaders’ collective homage today bridges past valor with present duties, positioning Pratap as India’s moral compass in an age demanding integrity and resolve. As these messages trend online, they reignite national pride, ensuring the flame of Rajputana spirit burns bright.
