Hindu Warrior Queens Who Defeated Mughals And British: Many times it is said that you are a woman and cannot do this work. However, on the other hand it is also said that women are no less than men. Indian history has also been a witness to the fact that women have played as much role in the country's independence as men. Many women emerged as symbols of strength, courage and power in the whole world and left an indelible mark. On the occasion of Women's Day Week, let's know about 5 such Hindu warriors who not only made the Mughals but also the British tremble with fear.

1. Queen Durgavati

First of all, let us talk about Rani Durgavati who was the queen of Gondwana. After the death of her husband, Rani Durgavati ruled under the guidance of her son. The queen fought many battles during her reign. Akbar's army attacked her thrice. But all three times, the queen drove away Akbar's army. After being defeated so many times by a female ruler, Akbar's commander Khwaja attacked her in 1564 and the queen was badly injured in that war, but instead of surrendering, she killed herself with a dagger and sacrificed her life.

2. Queen Tarabai

Perhaps very few people would know that Rani Tarabai was the daughter-in-law of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. Do you know that Rani Tarabai was the ruler who snatched back the Maratha Empire from the British. Not only this, she re-established the Maratha rule with her wisdom. Tarabai's husband Raja Ram died in the year 1700. Tarabai was adept in war strategy and weapons. She fought battles against the Mughals and those who supported them. For many years, she foiled Aurangzeb's intention to capture her fort.

3. Princess Ratnavati

Jaisalmer King Maharawal Ratan Singh had handed over the protection of Jaisalmer Fort to his daughter Princess Ratnavati. During this time, the ruler of Delhi Alauddin Khilji surrounded the fort. His commander was Malik Kafur. The Mughals surrounded the fort, but Ratnavati did not panic, rather she came to the battlefield on horseback in the guise of a soldier and kept commanding the army. The princess took more than 100 people including Kafur hostage, after which the Mughal army surrounded them. The ration inside the fort started running out and the princess became weak due to hunger. But she never gave up.

4. Rani Lakshmibai

You all know Rani Lakshmibai of Jhansi. After the death of her husband, she took over the reign of Jhansi. She adopted Damodar. The British government refused to accept Damodar as the heir to take over Jhansi. But the queen did not let the British fulfill their wish while she was alive and attained martyrdom while fighting them. However, during this time she gave a tough time to the British.

5. Rani Chennamma

Rani Chennamma was the first Indian ruler to oppose the British. When an army of 20 thousand soldiers suddenly attacked Kittur state, the queen alone blew the bugle against the British. Rani Chennamma defeated the British with her handful of army. But the British stabbed her in the back and defeated her treacherously and imprisoned the queen.
