The Second Battle of Lohgarh was fought in between 1712 or 1713 by Sikh forces led by Banda Singh Bahadur and Mughal forces led by Jahandar Shah.[1]
Event
After the death of Bahadur Shah I, a civil war occurred between his sons. The eldest son Jahandar Shah won and became the emperor.[2]
Banda took full advantage of the opportunity and recaptured Sadaura. After this, he recaptured Lohgarh. Here he remained undisturbed for around 2 months. The fort of Lohgarh were repaired and strengthened, which became the capital of the Sikhs for almost two years.[3][4][5][6]
