When Ghulām Qādir fell, Bijay Singh of Mārwar wrote to the Jaipur Rajah, “Ghulām Qādir has been captured. You should now be on your guard and muster your troops for the protection of your realm. Patil Bābā is himself again; therefore be heedful.” Throughout 1789 Pratāp Singh kept intriguing with Ismail Beg, but without success. At last in March 1790 a rupture took place between Sindhia and Ismail Beg, and soon afterwards envoys from Jodhpur and Jaipur paid some money and promised more to Ismail Beg and thus built up a new anti-Maratha alliance. We shall now see how it was completely shattered by the new army which De Boigne had created for Sindhia.
