"The time for retribution had arrived." Hearing of Aurangzib's final triumph and of the military and naval preparations at Dacca, both the kings of Kuch Bihar and Assam sent envoys offering to restore the territory they had seized, "to guard it in the meantime" as they alleged. Accordingly, a force was sent from Dacca under Rashid Khan to take delivery of Kamrup from the Ahoms. But the disloyalty of a vassal like Pran Narayan could not be pardoned. A second force was detached under Rajah Sujan Singh to conquer Kuch Bihar and punish its king.
