Beveridge) 932.15.6 - **Language:** English ### [932.15.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.932.15.6) While we were still in Kābul, Rānā Sangā had sent an envoy to testify to his good wishes and to propose this plan: "If the honoured Pādshāh will come to near Dihlī from that side, I from this will move on Āgra." But I beat Ibrāhīm, I took Dihlī and Āgra, and up to now that Pagan has given no sign soever of moving. After a while he went and laid siege to Kandār\[1945\] a fort in which was Makan's son, Ḥasan by name. This Ḥasan-of-Makan had sent a person to me several times, but had not shewn himself. We had not been able to detach \[Sidenote: Fol. 298b.\] reinforcement for him because, as the forts round-about—Atāwa (Etāwa), Dūlpūr, and Bīāna—had not yet surrendered, and the Eastern Afghāns were seated with their army in obstinate rebellion two or three marches on the Āgra side of Qanūj, my mind was not quite free from the whirl and strain of things close at hand. Makan's Ḥasan therefore, becoming helpless, had surrendered Kandār two or three months ago. Ḥusain Khān (\_Nuḥānī\_) became afraid in Rāprī, and he abandoning it, it was given to Muḥammad \`Alī \_Jang-jang\_. - [Previous: 932.15.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.932.15.5) - [Next: 932.15.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.932.15.7) - [Up: 932.15](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.932.15) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.932.15.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.932.15.6) · Pramāṇa
