Then the victors marched to Nawanagar and put Chhatra Sal in possession. Qutb-ud-din spent a month or two there to settle the new Government. The city was named *Islam-nagar* by order of the pious Emperor. Timaji, a son of Rai Singh, headed a new rising in Halar, but was defeated by a Mughal detachment and driven off to Kachh. In July 1666, we read of Bakhtaji, the zamindar of Islam-nagar having rebelled; but he fled from the city on the approach of the Mughal faujdar of Sorath (S. Kathiawad). In April next fresh disturbances by Timaji were reported at Court. Evidently the peninsula was long unsettled.*
