v3.c21.3

The Hindus of the Doāb and Katehr withheld payment of tribute, and in the year of his accession Khizr Khān found it necessary to send an army under Tāj-ul-Mulk to reduce to obedience Har Singh, the rebellious raja of Katehr. The raja fled into the forests of Āonla, but a rigorous blockade compelled him to submit and to give an undertaking to pay tribute in future. Mahābat Khān, governor of Budaun, also made his submission, and Tāj-ul-Mulk recrossed the Ganges and compelled the fief-holders and Hindu chieftains of the lower Doāb, among them Hasan of Rāprī¹, Raja Sarwar of Etāwah, and the raja of Kampil, to own allegiance to their new master. In Chandwār he restored Muslim supremacy, which had been subverted by the Hindus, and returned to Delhi with the tribute, or plunder, which he had collected in the course of his expedition.
