Description/History:
I love India, Indian history, culture, tradition, ancient sciences.
Prithviraj Chauhan, the last ruler of Chauhan dynasty to sit on the throne of Delhi, was born in 1168 as the son of Someshwar Chauhan, the king of Ajmer.
The emperor was buried near the tomb of Mohammad Ghazni, which also has the tomb of Mohammad Ghori. According to reports, it is now a part of the tradition in Afghanistan that those who pay visit to the tomb of Mohammad Ghazni and Mohammad Ghori first desecrate the place where the emperor’s mortal remains are buried. The inscription on the tomb reads: "Here lies the Kafer( Non Believer of Islam) king of Delhi."
There must now be an urgency of bringing back the remains of Prithviraj Chauhan to India for a worthy memorial at Delhi as well as Ajmer.

Petition:
It's a matter of shame that one of India's greatest king's remains are in Afghanistan in a grave of dilapidated condition.
There must now be an urgency of bringing back the remains of Prithviraj Chauhan to India for a worthy memorial at Delhi as well as Ajmer.
