Rudra Singh directed the two captive kings to be produced before him, Tāmradhvaj being taken viâ Maibong and Rām Singh across the Jaintia hills. He also ordered the Jaintia king's garments, jewels, arms, elephants and horses to be brought to him, and his treasure to be divided amongst the troops who had taken part in the campaign. The Ahom subjects who had fled to Khāspur during Mir Jumlah’s invasion were to be brought back, and an army of occupation under the Bar Barua and the Bar Phukan was directed to remain at Jaintiapur. These orders were carried out in February 1708. Envoys announcing that the Kachāri and Jaintia kingdoms had been annexed to the dominions of the Ahom Raja were sent to Māti Ullah, the Muhammadan Faujdar of Sylhet, who, it is said, made a courteous reply.
