1458 H. 862. Kumbha of Mevāḍ, having broken the peace of the previous year and invaded Nāgaur, Quṭbu-d-Dīn of Gujarāt marches to Sirohi, and thence to Mevāḍ which he ravages. According to the *Ṭab. Akbarī*, the Rāja of Sirohi fled at his approach and, after destroying the town, Quṭbu-d-Dīn invaded Mevāḍ and besieged Kumbha in Kumbhālmir. Finding the fort impossible to take, he afterwards raised the siege and marched to Chitor where, after ravaging the neighbouring districts, he returned to Aḥmadābād.—BG. 151-2. BF. iv, 43.
