Jaharbrata or Jaharbrata! The words Jaharbrata, Jaharbrata, Jaharbrata, Chitor, Rajput women, and Jaharbrata can be used interchangeably.

The word "Jahar" is believed to have originated from Sanskrit "Jathugriha," while some believe "Jahar" is derived from Persian "Zohar," meaning virtue and chastity Eight raids were conducted on the Indian border before Muhammad bin Qasim, but these were unsuccessful Jaharbrata was not introduced then.

Then in 712 AD, Kashim captured Sindh and introduced the practice of slavery After capturing Sindh with 6,000 Arab warriors, Bin Kashim enslaved 300,000 Hindu captives in 3 years Soon after this Muslim supremacy was established in India, Jahrabrata was introduced in the Hindu society of this country Sultan Mamud, after Bin Kashim, took 500,000 Indian captives as slaves to his country in 1001-02 AD.

The name of Chittor, a Rajput possession, is associated with Jahrabrata Three notable Jahrabrata occurred in Chittor.

First, it is known that Rani Padmini performed Jaharbrat with about 1600 women during Sultan Alauddin Khalji's invasion of Chittor in 1303 Second, it happened during the invasion of Chittor by Bahadur Shah, the Muslim ruler of Gujarat, in 1535 Many Hindu women sacrificed their lives in Jaharbrat even then.

Third, it happened during Mughal Emperor Akbar's invasion of Chittor in 1568 Akbar ordered the wives and daughters of 8000 Rajput soldiers killed to be imprisoned To save their self-respect and not to be sexual slaves, those 8000 Rajput women jumped into the fire and immolated themselves.

Besides Chittor, poaching is also known to have occurred on Bengal soil Poaching is known to have occurred during the reign of Senraj Ballal Sen near Ballal Dighi in Bikrampur, East Bengal, at a place known as "The Burnt King's House " A poaching case was also reported in the Bardhaman district of West Bengal.

It took place in the basement of the Bardhaman Rajbari The history is slightly different Duration: 1696 CE In Delhi, the Mughal emperor Aurangzeb was then in Delhi Meanwhile, the Raja of Bardhaman was then Krishnaram Rai He was allied against Bishnupurraj Gopal Singh Chitura, the Zamindar of Bardhaman, the rebel Shobha Singh, the Zamindar of Chandrakona, Raghunath Singh, the Afghan chieftain of Orissa against Bardhamanraj Krishnaram Ray.

Raja Krishnam Rai was finally killed after a fierce battle against the coalition forces His son Jagatram somehow escaped But the rebel Shobha Singh entered the harem and took the women of Krishnam's family captive In this situation, the women of the harem committed suicide by consuming poison Those who committed suicide were Laxmi Devi, Kunda Devi, Anand Devi, Phota Devi, Kunj Devi, Chimo Devi, Kishori Devi, Muluk Devi, Lajjo Devi, Jitu Devi, Daso Devi, Pato Devi and Krishna Devi.

All of them became known as "Jahuri ".

But Satyavati, daughter of King Krishnam, did not get the chance to commit suicide She was imprisoned by Shobha Singh Then when Shobha Singh tried to harm her honor, Satyavati killed Shobha Singh with a hidden knife Later she herself committed suicide Many ancient literature has the words "Jahar-sati" about Jaharbrata.

Jaharbrata continued until the partition of India in 1747 At that time, several Hindu and Sikh women committed suicide by jumping into the fire, some by drinking poison, and some by jumping into wells Thus, many women in the country became "Jahar-sati" to save their honor from sexual slavery.
