Q. Mohammad Ghori was first defeated by which of the following rulers?
Answer: Bhima II
Notes: Mohammad Ghori was first defeated by the Chalukya/Solanki dynasty rulers of Gujarat, specifically Mularaja II (also referred to as Bhima II or Bhimdev II) and his mother, Queen Naikidevi. This defeat occurred at the Battle of Kayadara (near Mount Abu) in 1178 CE, forcing Ghori to retreat. The battle took place near Mt. Abu. After the defeat, Ghori never attacked Gujarat again. Ghori's first invasions were on the Multan and fortress of Uch in 1175. He attacked Anhilwara in Gujarat in 1178, but was defeated by its king Mularaja II.
