Recorded operations in east Bengal (Bang and Kamrud) were confined to occasional raids with little territorial advantage. Lakshmana’s successors, Kesava and Viswarupa, frequently claim to have defeated and repulsed the “*Javanas*”.¹ After Saifuddin Aibak we do not hear of any expeditions to ‘Bang’ till the time of Yuzbaki, who, as noticed above, was dispossessed of Lakhnauti while campaigning in the East.
