Siege of Sirhind 1758
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
During the Maratha invasion of the Punjab in 1758, the Mughal-ki-Sarai near Ambala, Rajpura, and Sarai Banjara were all significant locations that witnessed the passage of the Maratha army. The siege of Sarhind, however, was a pivotal moment in this campaign.[1][2]
