The Memoirs of Jahāngīr (Jahāngīrnāma) 22.2.3

22.2.3

The Raja, by way of stratagem and vulpine trickery, sent his Vakils to Dilawar K., and begged that he might send his brother with offerings to the Court, so that when his offences obtained pardon, and his mind were freed from fear and trouble, he could also himself proceed to the Court, the refuge of the world, and kiss the threshold. Dilawar K. did not lend his ear to these deceitful words, and did not throw away from his hand the coin of opportunity. He dismissed the envoys of the Raja without the attainment of their object, and made every exertion to cross the bridge. His eldest son Jamal, with a band of the crocodiles of the sea of bravery and valour, went up the river, and by bravely swimming it, although swollen, crossed over, and engaged in a fierce battle with the enemy. The devoted servants of the Court made an attack from the other side, and made matters tight for these ruined people. These, when they found they had no longer the strength to oppose them, broke down the planking of the bridge, and took to flight. The victorious servants made the bridge strong again, and transported the remainder of the army. Dilawar Khan drew up his forces at Bhandarkot. From the aforesaid river (the Maru) to the Chenab, which is a strong support of these unfortunate people, is a distance of two bow-shots, and on the bank of the Chenab there is a lofty hill.
