History of Aurangzib, Based on Original Sources v1.c5.31

v1.c5.31

Jhujhar’s party was now divided, but all to no purpose. His sons were overtaken, and got no time to slay their women, as was the Rajput custom when death was to be preferred to dishonour. A few of the ladies had been stabbed, when the Mughals fell upon them, slew the guards, and captured the Bundela royal family.[†]
