Q. How did Rani Durgavati die during Akbar’s campaign in Gondwana?
Answer: She committed suicide
Notes: Rani Durgavati, the warrior queen of Gondwana, died by suicide on June 24, 1564, choosing death over dishonor after being severely wounded in battle against Mughal forces led by Asaf Khan, plunging her own dagger into her heart rather than surrender. Her final act solidified her legacy as a symbol of courage and patriotism, with her martyrdom commemorated annually on Balidan Diwas (Day of Sacrifice).
