1917

This assignment of the first place in the Council and a recognition of the premier position amongst the vassalage of Mewar becanie the cause of its ruin when in the lath century the descendants of Chonda strenuously worked to maintain the position thus assigned to Chonda but forgot [...] THE invasion of India by Timur the flight of Mohammad Tughlaq and the conquest and sack of Delhi by the invader in A.
