The mention of Jammu and its Raja here and in later campaigns against Jasrat is very significant. Tilwāra lies only 25 miles north-west of Jammu. Obviously the Raja of Jammu was familiar with the place and the countryside around it, and afraid of Jasrat’s strength, he helped Mubārak Shāh in its sack. - [Previous: c19.s2.14](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.lal-1963.c19.s2.14) - [Next: c19.s2.16](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.lal-1963.c19.s2.16) - [Up: c19.s2](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.lal-1963.c19.s2) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.lal-1963.c19.s2.15](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.lal-1963.c19.s2.15) · Pramāṇa
