Maliku-sh Shark Malik Sikandar Tuhfa marched from Lahor to relieve the place; but Jasrath, quitting his position before Kalanor, advanced some kos to meet him. A battle followed, in which Jasrath was victorious; Malik Sikandar retreated with his forces to Lahor. Jasrath passing by Kalanor, crossed the Biyah, and attacked Jalandhar; but the place was strong, and he was unable to take it, so he retreated to Kalanor, carrying off the people of the neighbourhood as prisoners. When His Majesty was informed of these occurrences, he ordered Zirak Khan, amir of Samana, and Islam Khan, amir of Sirhind, to unite their forces and advance to reinforce Malik Sikandar. But before they reached Lahor, Malik Sikandar had gone to Kalanor, and there uniting with his own forces all the horse and foot belonging to Rai Ghalib of that town, he marched after Jasrath, and met him near Kangra, on the banks of the Biyah. Both armies drew up in battle array, and the fight began. The forces of Islam were victorious. Jasrath being defeated, all the spoils which he had gained at Jalandhar fell into the hands of the victors, and he retreated to Tekhar. Malik Sikandar then returned to Lahor. - [Previous: 7.20](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tarikh-i-mubarakshahi~en-elliot.7.20) - [Next: 7.22](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tarikh-i-mubarakshahi~en-elliot.7.22) - [Up: 7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tarikh-i-mubarakshahi~en-elliot.7) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tarikh-i-mubarakshahi~en-elliot.7.21](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tarikh-i-mubarakshahi~en-elliot.7.21) · Pramāṇa
