Then Rajah Todar Mal, with Sadiq Muhammad Khan and Tarsun Muhammad Khan and other mighty Amirs were appointed from Fathpur to go and quell the rebellion. And Muhibb 'Ali Khan, governor of Rohtas, and Muhammad Ma'sum Khan Farankhudi, governor of Jaunpur, and the other jagir-holders of the neighbourhood were ordered to assist the Rajah. While they were still on their way Shaham Khan Jalair engaged with Sa'id Khan Badakhshi and slew him. Muhammad Ma‘sūm Jounpūrī joined the Rājah with 3,000 well-trained and perfectly appointed cavalry. But symptoms of rebellion were apparent in all his actions. The Rājah suspecting this tried to soothe him by every possible means. Mean-while he sent a report of the state of affairs to Court.
