Maharana Udai singh, Ruler of Mewar fled to Udaipur and placed the fort under the command of Jaimal Rathore. In the ensuing Battle, Rajput Soldiers fought valiantly and wreaked havoc on the Mughal Army. Akbar had to change his strategy several times to Enter the fort after a hard fought battle in which, Jaimal Rathore succumbed to a musket shot of Akbar on 22 February 1568.
