Chetak ( horse ) Cetak , or Chetak , was the horse of Maharana Pratap , whom Pratap rode during the Battle of Haldighati , June 21 , 1576 . Chetak died in this battle and since then has been immortalized in the ballads of Rajasthan . The warhorse was of Kathiawari breed . Folklore has it that Chetak ' s coat had a blue tinge . That is why Rana Pratap is sometime referred as the Rider of the Blue Horse " in ballads . The battle and Chetak . Maharana pratap forces were decisively outnumbered . While mounted on Chetak , Pratap made an attempt on the life of Imperial Mughal Emperor Akbar . When Pratap saw that the battle ' s tide was turning against him , he charged towards the Imperial Mughal Emperor Akbar who was directing the battle seated on an elephant . Pratap made a frontal charge at the Imperial army , hacked his way through the massed ranks of enemy combatants and reached in front of Akbar ' s elephant . Once there , Chetak reared high in the air and planted his hooves on the forehead of Akbar ' s elephant . Pratap threw his lance at Akbar , who ducked in time . The blow fell on the mahout ( elephant driver ) instead , who was killed instantly . In the general melee that followed , Chetak received a fatal wound on one of his legs . This was the turning point of the battle . Mewar ' s bold gamble to siege the battle in its favor had failed . As Akbar was whisked away to safety , Pratap found himself surrounded by enemy soldiers . Maharana Pratap was loath to leave a battle in between , but was prevailed upon by his faithful followers . By some accounts , one of the Jhala Sardar literally snatched the Royal Insignia from Maharana ' s person and wore them himself , thus making him a target for the Mughal Army . As the Mughal army fell upon the Jhala sardar mistaking him for Maharana , Maharana left the battlefield with some of his loyal followers . Chetak was exhausted and seriously wounded , but labored on carrying his master , about 2 miles from the site of the battle he came across a small stream . It was here , while trying to leap across the stream that Chetak collapsed . Maharana erected a small monument for his horse at the place where Chetak fell . The cenotaph still exists at Haldighati in Rajsamand District .
Operation Woodrose Operation Woodrose was a military operation carried out by the Indira Gandhi - led Indian government in the months after Operation Blue Star to " prevent the outbreak of widespread public protest " in the state of Punjab .
