Pūran Mal of Rāisen had, not long before this time, attacked and captured Chanderī, put its inhabitants to the sword, added to his territory the country around that town, and enslaved many women, Muslims as well as Hindus, some of whom he employed as dancing girls. The punishment of such offences as these was incumbent on a faithful Muslim, and Sher Shāh, when sufficiently recovered, returned to Āgra and in 1543 set out for Māndū, whence he marched to Rāisen.
