Prithviraja III's wife, Samyuktha, is said to have died after a tragic incident during the conflict between Prithviraja and Muhammad Ghori. According to legend, when Prithviraja was defeated and captured, Samyuktha, faced with the prospect of being taken captive by Ghori, chose to end her life by self-immolation, a practice known as "jauhar," to preserve her honor. This act of sacrifice has been romanticized in various historical accounts and literature.
