The viceroyalty of the Deccan was now divided into two governments, the Bālāghāt, comprising the former dominions of Ahmadnagar and the southern table-land of Berār, and the Pāyānghāt, consisting of the rest of Berār and Khāndesh; and Khān Zamān was appointed to the government of the former and Khān Daurān to that of the latter. Of the rebels the most formidable was Shāhjī Bhonsle, who held the forts of Trimbak, Kondhānā¹ and Shivner above the Ghāts, besides many in the Konkan, and enjoyed the support and protection of Muhammad ‘Ādil Shāh.
