c14.79

In the same year a mixed body of Daflas and Moāmariās raised the standard of revolt on the north bank of the Brahmaputra.* They crossed the river to Silghāt, but at this place they were met and defeated by the newly-raised army of regulars. Many of them were killed, and others were drowned while trying to get into their boats. Many also were captured and beheaded, and their heads were stuck up on stakes as a warning to others.
