Battle of Ranakpur

The Battle of Ranakpur (Ranpur) was fought between the Mewar and the Mughal Empire

Background
Soon after his accession, Jahangir initiated numerous campaigns to subdue Mewar. In 1606, an army of 20,000 cavalry was dispatched to attack Mewar. Rana Amar Singh led a hard-fought battle to defend his territory and personally slew the Mughal commander. In 1608, an army under Mahabat Khan was sent to Mewar through Mandal and Chittor. This army too was defeated and had to retreat because of continuous raids by Rajput forces. In 1609, Mahabat Khan was replaced with Abdullah Khan who was able to achieve initial success from 1609 to 1611. In an attack by Abdullah Khan on Chavand about 2000-3000 Rajputs staying there fought till death and Amar Singh was forced to abandon the capital.

Battle
After initial setbacks, Rana reorganized his army, and a fierce battle unfolded between the Mewari and Mughal forces of Abdullah at Ranakpur, near Kumbhalgarh, resulting in significant casualties on both sides. The Mewari forces emerged victorious, turning Abdullah Khan's campaign in Mewar, despite its initial success, into a total failure. He was subsequently called back and sent to Gujarat.

Aftermath
After Abdullah, Raja Basu was appointed to the command of the Mughul army in Rajasthan. But he too failed to meet the objectives. He was recalled and Khan A‘zam Mirza Aziz Koka sent in 1613 to replace him.Upon his request for assistance, in 1613, Jahangir himself came to Rajputana to supervise the campaign. His son Khurram led the campaign on the ground.Many attempts were made by Jahangir to make settlements with the Maharana and the final attempt in 1615 succeeded when Maharana Amar Singh agreed to meet with Prince Khurram.
