On hearing of this revolution in their master's court, Lakhwā, Jagu and several sardārs of their party quitted the Marātha camp in Jaipur suddenly on the morning of 5th May 1800 and fled away towards Ajmere and Mewār. Ambāji Inglé was reappointed Sindhiā's viceroy in Hindustan and directed to act in concert with Perron and prevent Lakhwā from joining the Widows. Lakhwā entered into an agreement with Bhim Singh the Rajah of Marwār to defend him against any attack by Perron, and sent his family and effects to Jodhpur for safety. He himself stayed near Udaipur till the middle of July, for obtaining money.
