Hadi Rani Sahal Kanwar was a legendary Queen from Rajasthan, known for her unwavering courage and sacrifice. As the daughter of Hada Chauhan Rajput Sangram Singh, she married Rawat Ratan Singh, a Chundawat chieftain of Salumbar in Mewar. The remarkable tale of Hadi Rani revolves around her ultimate sacrifice, as she severed her own head to inspire her husband to join a rebellion against the Mughal governor of Ajmer Subah. Despite the tragic outcome, her act of bravery and devotion has left a lasting legacy. Even today, she is revered in Rajasthan, with folklore singers recounting her story through songs, and her tale being a part of the state's curriculum. Hadi Rani Ki Baori, a stepwell in Todaraisingh town, stands as a testament to her valor, believed to have been constructed in the 17th century. Furthermore, the Rajasthan Police has honored her by establishing the 'Hadi Rani Mahila Battalion'. While her story has inspired various artistic expressions, including poems, songs, and a proposed Bollywood movie, her legacy continues to captivate and inspire many.
