Of the events which occurred during this fortunate year was the engaging in battle of Kamal Khan Ghakar, and his victory. The facts of this beautiful story are that at the time when Agra became the abode of sovereignty it came to the royal ears that an Afghan tribe called the Miyana was stirring up strife in Saranj which is in the province of Malwa. H.M. sent Kamal Khan Ghakar against them as he showed marks of courage, and was fit for this employ. He went off with a body of troops and fought a battle. He was victorious and returned to kiss the threshold. He was rewarded by a robe of honour and received the towns of Karah, Fathpur, Hanswah, and other places in fief.
