v4.c64.s16.8

From the neighbourhood of Goa Shah Alam marched northwards to Malvan and there blew up with gunpowder the famous white temple and other edifices belonging to the Maratha king. Kudal and Banda (in Savant-vadi) were burnt and Vingurla sacked by him during this expedition. Turning south again he returned to the bank of the Chapora river, (north of Goa), either to establish touch with his provision-vessels or to make a second attempt on the Portuguese capital. (Storia, ii. 286.)
