After this success Sikandar marched to Kotala and Kālpī, dispossessed his nephew, A‘zam-i-Humāyūn, who had been a candidate for the crown, of these fiefs, and bestowed them upon Muhammad Khān Lodī. He next attacked, in Jhatra, Tātār Khān Lodī, who had been one of his bitterest opponents, compelled him to submit and generously restored him to his fief. Marching thence to Gwalior he received the submission of Raja Kirat Singh, invested him with a robe of honour as governor of the fortress and district, and marched to Bayāna, where the governor, Sharaf, son of Ahmad Jalvānī, appeared before him and, by a feigned submission, obtained a promise of the fiefs of Jalesar, Chandwār, Mārhara, and Suket on condition of his surrendering the keys of Bayāna. He was permitted to return for the keys but had no sooner regained the shelter of the fortress than he prepared to stand a siege. Sikandar marched to Āgra, which was held by Haibat Khān, a dependant of Sharaf, and, having entrusted the siege of that town to some of his officers, returned to Bayāna and after a short siege compelled Sharaf to surrender. He was permitted to retire to Gwalior, the fief of Bayāna was granted to Khān Khānān, and the king returned to Delhi.
