A punitive expedition was sent against them, and they were defeated, with the loss of four killed and a large number of prisoners; much booty was also taken. As a precaution against further raids embanked roads were constructed from the Brahmaputra to two forts in the Miri country, and were furnished with fortified gateways.\* The Sadiyā Khowā Gohāin was dismissed from his appointment on account of the apathy shown by him during these operations. - [Previous: c13.29](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.gait-1906.c13.29) - [Next: c13.31](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.gait-1906.c13.31) - [Up: c13](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.gait-1906.c13) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.gait-1906.c13.30](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.gait-1906.c13.30) · Pramāṇa
