Answer:
Matrabhumi ka maan- This is a short story by Harikrishna Premi. This story is based on nationalism and patriotism.
One of the protagonist of this story, Maharana Lakha, the king of Sisodiyas of Mewar wants to rule over all his neighbouring states and thus asks his Senapati, Abhay Singh, to go and ask Rao Hemu to surrender his state, Boondi, to Mewar but the king refused. He said that he wants peace and collaboration from Mewar and will never surrender himself to it even if it requires a war.
Hearing the news, Maharana Lakha became quite angry and swore that he will attack and annex Boondi. At this, Charni, another character of the story, made him realise that he has made a big mistake by promising to attack Boondi. Now to complete his promise, a duplicate of Boondi's durg was made so that a war can be fought between the army men of Mewar only.
But the war became serious when Vir Singh, an army man of Mewar but a citizen of Boondi, along with my some of his Boondi friends started fighting with Mewar's army to protect their duplicate Boondi. At the end of the day, an explosion takes place and Vir Singh with his friends die.
This made Maharana Lakha feel guilty and he asked for forgiveness from the dead body. Meanwhile, Rao Hemu also enters the scene and extended a hand of friendship towards Lakha and they all together gave tribute to brave Vir Singh.
