When The Marathas Came To Jammu?

Avtar Mota* A book on Maratha wars briefly introduced me to an event in the 18th century and mentioned the migration of some Marathas to Jammu during Ahmed Shah Abdali’s invasion. The story goes like this: Ahmed Shah Abdali invaded India eight times between 1748 and 1767, following the collapse of the Mughal Empire. To maintain his huge army created by Nadir Shah for invasions, Ahmed Shah Abdali…

14th Jan 1761, Third Battle of Panipat. The day that could change the course of Indian History.

(Video credit to my Friend Mahesh Kadam from Satara and Vijaya Dada)

Today everyone has been wishing Happy Sankranti and I rarely saw a post that remembered 14th Jan 1761, except for a few friends from Satara, since they are very closely connected to this day as a lot have lost a lot of family members, in some cases even two generations. Hence, I just thought may be its time to just make a small note and circulate so that this day could be remembered and paid tribute to the Maratha History

This day, 14th Jan 1761, is a day Indian History should never forget since this was the day 3rd battle of Panipat was fought and I feel could also have altered the course of Indian History. This is my attempt to summarise what happened this day on the battlefield.

The Third Battle of Panipat took place on this day in 1761, at Panipat, between a northern expeditionary force of the Maratha Empire and a coalition of the King of Afghanistan, Ahmad Shah Durrani with two Indian Muslim allies—the Rohilla under the command of Najib-Ud-Daula, and Shuja-ud-Daula, the Nawab of Oudh

The battle is considered one of the largest fought in the 18th century, and has perhaps the largest number of fatalities in a single day reported in a classic formation battle between two armies.

A little background to this war: Under Peshwa Baji Rao, Gujarat and Malwa came under Maratha control. Finally, in 1737, Baji Rao defeated the Mughals on the outskirts of Delhi, and brought much of the former Mughal territories south of Delhi under Maratha control. Baji Rao’s son, Balaji Baji Rao (popularly known as Nana Saheb), further increased the territory under Maratha control by invading Punjab in 1758 and went right upto the Attak fort. Marathas ruled from Attak to Cuttack. This brought the Marathas into direct confrontation with the Durrani empire of Ahmad Shah Abdali. In 1759 he raised an army from the Pashtun tribes and made several gains against the smaller Maratha garrisons in Punjab. He then joined with his Indian allies—the Rohilla Afghans of the Gangetic Doab—forming a broad coalition against the Marathas. The Marathas then were the protectors of Mughals in return of the Chauth, a right of tax collection in return of protection. Hence under the command of Sadashiv Rao Bhau, Maratha’s responded by gathering an army of between 45,000–60,000, which was accompanied by roughly 200,000 non-combatants, a number of whom were pilgrims desirous of making pilgrimages to Hindu holy sites in northern India

With both sides poised for battle, manoeuvring followed, with skirmishes between the two armies fought around Karnal and Kunjpura. Abdus Samad Khan, the faujdar of Sirhind, had come to Kunjpura, on the banks of the Yamuna river 60 miles to the north of Delhi with a force of more than ten thousand and supplies for the Afghan force. Kunjpura was stormed by the Marathas who was running short of supplies. Aided by the musketeers under Ibrahim Gardi, the Marathas achieved a rather easy victory at Kunjpura against an army of around 15,000 Afghans posted there.[14] Some of Abdali's best generals like Najabat Khan were killed.[21][22]Abdus Samad Khan the faujdar of Sirhind was also killed during the battle.[23]Qutab shah who was responsible for beheading Dattaji Shinde at the battle of Barari ghat was executed by the Marathas after their capture of Kunjpura

After the Marathas failed to prevent Abdali's forces from crossing the Yamuna River, they set up defensive works in the ground near Panipat, thereby blocking his access back to Afghanistan, just as Abdali's forces blocked theirs to the south

During the next two months of the siege, constant skirmishes and duels took place between units from the two sides. In one of these Najib lost 3,000 of his Rohillas and was nearly killed himself. Facing a potential stalemate, Abdali decided to seek terms, which Bhau was willing to consider. However, Najib Khan delayed any chance of an agreement with an appeal on religious grounds and sowed doubt about whether the Marathas would honour any agreement

Unable to continue without supplies or wait for reinforcements from Pune any longer, Bhau decided to break the siege. Shuja had been funding Abdali and hence was not in same position as Bhau. Before dawn on 14 January 1761, the Maratha troops broke their fast with sugared water in the camp and prepared for combat.

While until almost late noon Marathas were dominating the battlefield one bullet hit Vishwas Rao, Son of Balaji Rao. The death of Vishwas turned the battle dramatically. Seeing him fall, the troops lost heart. Sadashiv Bhau himself dismounted from his elephant to come to see Vishwas and without his rallying presence, the Marathas troops panicked and began fleeing the battlefield. In the unruly chaos that followed, Abdali launched another attack with the rest of his reserves that swung in from the rear and sides of the beleaguered Marathas.

What followed was a slaughter. Weakened after the day-long fighting they were cut to pieces as the Afghan cavalry tore into them and bullets rained upon them. Their right flank under Holkar and Scindia took no part in the fighting and melted away from the battlefield, moving to Delhi and then their home bases. For the rest, it was carnage, as they battled desperately in isolated pockets.

On this day, 50-60,000 Marathas fell only in one day. Another 20-30,000 women and children were captured and taken as slaves. Not less than 100,000 Marathas (soldiers and non-combatants) perished during and after the battle.

The result of the battle was the halting of further Maratha advances in the north, and a destabilization of their territories, for roughly 10 years. This period of 10 years is marked by the rule of Peshwa Madhavrao, who is credited with the revival of Maratha domination following the defeat at Panipat. In 1771, 10 years after Panipat, he sent a large Maratha army into North India in an expedition that was meant to (a) re-establish Maratha domination in North India, and (b) Punish refractory powers that had either sided with the Afghans, such as the Rohillas, or had shaken off Maratha domination after Panipat. The success of this campaign can be seen as the last saga of the long story of Panipat.

Devoid of any major challenger, the British consolidated their position and established British rule in India that would last 200 years. That perhaps was the greatest tragedy of the battle.

If Shuja-Ud-Daula had struck to his promise and supported Bhau Abdali had no chance in the war since the entire funding to Abdali was by Shuja. Had Marathas won this war the course of Indian History would have been different since Marathas were the only ones that had repeatedly defetated English Forces.

Additional information: Since I belong to Satara i would like to also mention that large number if warriors in the war were from Satara and there was almost no house left that did not loose someone.
