 Bahadur Shah entered Chittorgarh and ransacked it for the second time.Realising that defeat was imminent, Karnavati and the other noble ladies of the court immolated themselves in a mass suicide by fire known as Jauhar on March 8, 1534 A.D., while all the men donned saffron clothes and went out to fight to the death and thus committed saka.This is the occasion for the second of the three Jauhars performed at Chittor.
