Sumbhajee was still at war with the Portuguese, and the latter had instigated the chief of Soonda and the Dessayes of Carwar to throw off their allegiance; Sumbhajee, about the end of the rains, sent some of his troops into the northern Concan, and again plundered the exposed parts of the Portuguese possessions in that quarter; he himself came to Panalla to watch the motions of Sultan Mauzum's army.
