Draft:Jai Singh's attack on Bijapur

Mughal Commander Jai Singh Invaded Bijapur on orders of Aurangzeb where he met failure as he was repulsed by Rataji Mane a Maratha commander under Bijapur.

Background
After the Mughals emerged victorious against Shivaji in the Battle of Purandar, Shivaji came to the realization that he could not defend Purandar or expel the Mughals from his territory. Consequently, he surrendered. Under the terms of the treaty of Purandar, Shivaji relinquished twenty-three of his fortresses and the lands they controlled to the empire, while retaining twelve fortresses and their lands as his domain. He became a vassal of the Mughal emperor, paying tribute, but was exempted from personal service as a mansabdar. Instead, his young son, Sambhaji, was granted the rank of 5,000 zat and would be sent to the imperial court. Additionally, Shivaji agreed to lead his troops as part of the Mughal force expected to invade Bijapur, with the promise of receiving additional lands seized from Bijapur in return. Shivaji thus surrendered his independence and entered the imperial system as a chief, or, in imperial terminology, a zamindar, following the fate of many powerful regional chiefs and kings before him.

Aftermath
Saya Khan, commander, pleased with Rataji Mane in repulsing the attack of Jai Singh on Bijapur, recommended to Ali Adil Shah II [sultan of Bijapur] that the deshmukhi watan of Kasbe Kaladhon be granted to Rataji Mane. While Jai Singh fled towards Bhopal.
