In January 1685, Shihab-ud-din Khan had made a dash from his post of Puna, crossed the Bhorghat and penetrated to Gargoli, but Kavi-kalas had met and repulsed him there. [Z. S.] Throughout 1684 and the next three years the Mughals had to concentrate their forces in the south and south-east for the conquest of Bijapur and Golkonda, and could spare no troops for the occupation of Kalian.
