General Perron’s first task was to gain possession of the Sindhian forts in the North still held by Lakhwā Dādā’s partisans. Thus, on 16th April 1799, he succeeded in taking delivery of Agra fort from Vishrām Bhāu by paying the dues of the garrison, and of Aligarh fort on the 27th of the same month.* Perron now made Aligarh his head quarters.
