Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
Prithviraja III fought Muhmad Ghori in 1192 AD. During the battle, the Turkish ruler was Muhammad Ghori, and the Rajput ruler of India was Prithviraj Chauhan. Because Muhammad Ghori could not defeat Prithviraj Chauhan in the first Tarain battle, the Turks attacked the Rajputs again one year later in the Second Battle of Tarain. During the Second Battle, Muhammad Ghori's army had 1,20,000 army men, whereas Prithviraj Chauhan's army had over 2000 elephants but only 3,00,000 army men. Mohammad Ghori launched a surprise attack on the 'Chahamana camp' in Tarain via four divisions of arches, causing heavy losses to Prithviraj Chauhan's army.
