The villages Raksas and Tagdi related to which battle?
Answer: A
Raksas and Tagdi relate to the Battle of Talikota.
In 1565 the combined Deccan sultanates of Bijapur, Ahmadnagar, Golconda and Bidar defeated the Vijayanagara army under Aliya Rama Raya. The battle was fought near the villages of Rakkasagi and Tangadigi on the Krishna, which is why it is also called the battle of Rakshasa-Tangadi; Talikota was the nearby town where the allies camped. The defeat led to the sack of the Vijayanagara capital.
Takkolam (949) was a Rashtrakuta victory over the Cholas, the Third Battle of Panipat (1761) was fought between the Marathas and Ahmad Shah Abdali, and the Battle of Adyar (1746) was fought near Madras between the French and the Nawab of the Carnatic.
