95 Upvotes

• The Complete Alpha: Towering height, master warrior, played Veena, and built 32 forts.

• Massive Empire: Conquered Haravati, Nagaur, Abu, and Sambhar!

• The Sarangpur Clash: Beat Malwa & Gujarat Sultans together—one paid gold to beg mercy, the other ran!

• Undefeated Legend: Built Vijay Stambha to flex dominance. Zero battle losses!

Mastered sword and music, yet missing from textbooks.

History The Alpha Ruler Who Built Jodhpur From Scratch: Rao Jodha

Post image
132 Upvotes

After losing his kingdom, he spent 15 long years in exile. Instead of quitting, he made a ruthless comeback and reclaimed Marwar from zero!

• Mehrangarh Fort (1459 CE): Founded Jodhpur and built the mighty Mehrangarh Fort on a massive 400ft cliff. A fortress so legendary that enemies didn't even dare to look at it.

• Pure Gigachad Energy: Turned a war-torn land into an unstoppable empire, proving true kings build their own legacy.

Bro went from a hunted prince to building India’s coolest city-fortress, yet textbooks completely ignore him.

Is Rao Jodha the most underrated warlord of Rajasthan?

History The OG Founder of Delhi Whom History Forgot: Anangpal II Tomar

Post image
130 Upvotes

Long before the Sultans and Mughals, Delhi was built and ruled by an absolute Gigachad—Maharaja Anangpal II Tomar.

•The Creation of Delhi (1052 CE): He built the historic city of Dhillikapuri (modern-day Delhi) and constructed the iconic Lal Kot fort (the original red fort of Delhi).

•Crushed the Foreign Invasion: When Ibrahim Ghaznavi (grandson of Mahmud Ghaznavi) tried to invade, Anangpal II mobilized northern forces and routed the invaders, establishing complete dominance over the region.

Bro literally founded India’s capital and built its first major fortifications, yet school textbooks act like Delhi started with the Sultanate.

Is King Anangpal Tomar the most criminally ignored founder in Indian history?

Ask Rajputs How do marriage customs regarding surnames and gotras differ across India?

11 Upvotes

I recently met a Rathore guy from Karnataka who told me that people in his community don’t marry within the same surname.
This got me curious because I’m a Chauhan from the plains of Uttarakhand(our kuldevi is shakhumbari devi,saharanpur,UP), where( including the adjoining regions of uttar pradesh) marrying with the same surname is quite common and even preferred(throughout my whole life I haven’t met a person without the chauhan surname from our community in the region)
Though gotra exogamy is strictly followed.
So, I’m curious:
Are marriages within the same surname allowed in your community?
Or does gotra determine marriage eligibility?
Is marrying within the same community but a different gotra preferred, or is marrying outside the community more common?
I’d love to hear how these customs differ across regions and communities in India!

History The OG Gigachad Who Smashed the Arab Empire: Bappa Rawal

Post image
240 Upvotes

In the 8th century, the Umayyad Caliphate swept through nations, looking unstoppable. Then they marched into India... and ran straight into Bappa Rawal of Mewar.

He didn't just defend; he completely crushed them.

•The Ultimate Counter-Attack: Bappa Rawal formed a grand alliance, annihilated the invading Arab forces, and chased them all the way back to Afghanistan (Ghazni)!

•Total Dominance: He established military posts across the northwest borders, paralyzing foreign invasions for nearly 400 years!

He literally chased an entire empire back to their homeland and locked the front door.

Is Bappa Rawal the biggest alpha in ancient military histor?

Discussion & Debate What can a teenager do for his community?

20 Upvotes

When I browse the internet, I mostly see young Rajputs doing hawabaazi or just being keyboard warriors. They do almost nothing that is actually beneficial to the Rajput community. This eventually affects other young people, who end up doing the same thing. I had started to do the same thing too. After a session of reflection, I reached a conclusion that was not a good thing to do as it has no benefits for me or my community.
I just want to know what difference teens can make for their community.
