Battle of Chhandwar
The reason of this battle of Chhandwar must not happened if Jai Chand Rathor had helped Prithavi Raj Chauhan. Jai Chand Rathor, the king of Kanuj was not in good relations with Prithavi Raj Chauhan. Jai Chand Rathor was very happy when he was defeated by Muhammad Ghori. This war had happened only one year after the second war of Taraori. Muhammad Ghori had ended his first expedition in Ganges plain when he was defeated by Prithavi Raj Chauhan in the frist battle of Taraori in the year of 1991. in the following year he again returned Taraori defeating Prithavi Raj and founded the Delhi Sultanate.
The battle of Chhandwar was the next winning war of Muhammad Ghori in 1993-1994.
Jai Chand was the ruler of Beneras and Kanauj at time. When it became clear that Muhammad is conqueror and not a raider, Jai Chand Rathor was forced to fight. After winning the battle of Taraori, Muhammad Ghori had returned to Ghazni leaving back Qutb-ud-din Aibak to invade Delhi. But when he realized that Jai Chand had planned to fight. Muhammad Ghori returned back to India. The both combined Muslim armies attacked Kanauj. Aibak attacked Jai Chand and the battle was fought at Chandwar on the Jumna River very near to Agra. The army was very near to victory, only one arrow changed the result. An arrow hit the eye of Jai Chand and killed him. Jai Chand fell off his elephant and trampled. He could be identified after the war by the gold caps of his teeth. The battle of Chhandwar gave control of Northern India
