Chunda Sisodia
rajput prince
Chunda was the eldest son of Rana Lakha, the ruler of Mewar. He is known in history for his sacrifice of his rights to the throne, to keep his promise. He was the heir-apparent until he renounced his right in favour of the heir born from Hansa Bai, the Rathore princess who was married to Maharana Lakha.
Early life
Chunda, was the eldest out of eight issues of Rana Lakha. Ranmal Rathore, the eldest son of Rao Chunda of Marwar was discontented with his fate in Mandore, as his father made Kanha as the heir apparent. He arrived in Mewar, where Rana Lakha granted him the jagir of Dhanla. Ranmal sent a marriage proposal of his sister Hansa Bai to the heir apparent of Mewar, but when the proposal arrived in the court, Rana Lakha jested with the delegation, remarking the proposal was obviously not for him. Chunda, who was on a mission then, was absent from the court. On his return, Chunda learned of the whole event, he rejected the offer. To avoid making an issue by declining the proposal, it was proposed to Ranmal that he should marry his sister to Rana Lakha.
