Ibrahim Husain Mirza and Muhammad Husain Mirza held Broach, Baroda, and Surat, in defiance of the Emperor, so he resolved to free the country of Gujarat from their rebellious power. On Monday, 2nd Sha'ban, he started from the river of Ahmadabad, and marched towards Kambay. 'Itimad Khan and other of the Gujarat amirs were, at the request of some of the great officials, allowed to remain behind in Ahmadabad for a few days to arrange their affairs. Seizing this opportunity, Ikhtiyaru-l Mulk, one of the chief nobles of Gujarat, fled on the 4th Sha'ban from Ahmadabad to Ahmadnagar. As no reliance could be placed on the nobles of Gujarat, 'Itimad Khan was given into the custody of Shahbaz Khan Kambu. On the 6th the Emperor reached Kambay. He went to look at the sea, and leaving Kambay on the 12th, he reached Baroda on the 14th. After reflecting upon the best means of guarding and governing the country of Gujarat, he appointed Mirza 'Aziz Muhammad Kokaltash the Khan-i 'azam to be the governor of the country, and especially of its capital Ahmadabad.
