To resist the Abdali invasion, Dewan Kaura Mall led an army against Ahmad Shah Abdali, which was joined by Sikhs under the command of Sukha Singh.[3] The battle started when Sukha Singh crossed the river and entered the bushes.[4] Rattan Singh Bhangu, the auther of Prachin Panth Parkash, was also at that time of the battle.[5] During the battle, Sukha Singh wahadhe wrong impressions hat Ahmad Shah Abdali Himself was commanding the troops.[6] Sukha singh was killed in this campaign, which disheartened the Sikh contingent enough to enable Ahmad Shah Abdali to invade India.[7]
