Fíroz Jang, with another army, was sent to reduce the forts in the neighbourhood of Rájgarh. Mukarrab Khán, otherwise called Shaikh Nizám Haidarábádí, was sent against the infidel Sambhá. Each of them endeavoured to distinguish himself in the performance of the service on which he had been sent. Mukarrab Khán was distinguished above all the nobles of the Dakhin for his military knowledge and enterprise. He laid siege to the fort of Pamela, near Kolapur, and sent out his spies in all directions to gather intelligence, and especially to get information about Sambha, who in his vile and evil course of life was ten times worse than his father Sivaji. \* \* - [Previous: 85](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.later.muntakhab-al-lubab~en-elliot.85) - [Next: 86.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.later.muntakhab-al-lubab~en-elliot.86.2) - [Up: 86](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.later.muntakhab-al-lubab~en-elliot.86) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.later.muntakhab-al-lubab~en-elliot.86.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.later.muntakhab-al-lubab~en-elliot.86.1) · Pramāṇa
