But Rana Udi Singh, Raja of Marwar, confident in the strength of his fortresses, and the number of his men and elephants, had thrown off his allegiance. Now that the Emperor had returned to the capital, with his mind at rest in respect of 'Ali Kuli Khan and other rebels, he turned his attention towards the capture of Chitor. He accordingly began to make preparations for the campaign. The pargana of Bayana was taken from Haji Muhammad Khan Sistani, and given in jagir to Asaf Khan, who was ordered to proceed thither, and collect provisions and materials for the army. The Emperor followed to the town of Bari, with the avowed intention of hunting, and there killed a thousand animals in sport. Then he ordered his army to be brought up, and proceeded onwards to Ma-maidana. When he reached the fort of Supar, he found that, hearing of his approach, the men who garrisoned that fort for Rai Surjan of Rantambhor, had abandoned it and fled to Rantambhor. The fort was placed in charge of Nazar Bahadur, one of the Imperial adherents. From thence he went on to Kota, one of the parganas of that country, of which he made Shah Muhammad Khan Kandahari the governor. Next he marched to Gagrun, on the borders of Malwa. - [Previous: 33.14](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.33.14) - [Next: 34.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.34.2) - [Up: 34](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.34) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.34.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.34.1) · Pramāṇa
