At Bhagawan-gola Zabardast attacked the rebel position by land and water. His artillery, well served by Feringis, made havoc in their crowded ranks and silenced their guns. After a two days* fight the Afghans were routed and their camp captured (May 1697). But the victors were too exhausted and too much encumbered with wounded to give chase immediately. After a short stay he resumed his march and drove Rahim successively out of Murshidabad and Bardwan into the woods.*
