Description By the seventh century, the Rajput kings had lost their kingdoms extending up to Ghazni in Afghanistan to their enemies. In the eighth century, the foreign adversaries had not only entered India across the River Indus and invaded large parts of western India, but had also established several small kingdoms in Rajasthan. Even so, the Hindu rulers failed to unite. There was not one Rajput ruler strong enough to drive the aliens out and bring together the small states by instilling a sense of peace and security among the people.Such were the conditions when Prince Shailadhish, who was to become famous as Bappa Rawal - the father of a united Rajasthan ? was compelled to go into hiding. He was a mere child when he was taken away from his mother to serve in a Brahmin household.When he finally went to see her, his mother related to him how the Rajputs had once ruled over the territory up to Ghazni. At that moment Bappa made a vow, ?I will win back the territory of my predecessors.?In the following pages you will read how, in the face of trials and tribulations, he redeemed his promise. The story in this Amar Chitra Katha has been adapted from the various legends about Bappa Rawal.
