v4.c19.135

In 1610 prince Parvīz, against the advice of the Khān Khānān, attempted to invade Murtazā’s territories by the eastern route, which was little known and difficult. His supplies were cut off by Marāthā auxiliaries and he suffered a disastrous defeat. His enemies, judging it imprudent to proceed to extremities against the emperor’s son, permitted a retreat to Burhānpur, but pursued the Mughal army through Berār, plundering its baggage and otherwise harassing it, while even Ahmadnagar fell into the hands of Malik ‘Ambar’s troops. Jahāngīr most unjustly blamed the Khān Khānān for these disasters and recalled him from the Deccan, but other generals had no better success.
