अलबोय-युद्धम् #३५५

Event occured on 1669-08-15 (gregorian). Julian date was converted to Gregorian in this reckoning.

Mogol forces under rAma siMha (son of jayasiMha) of Amber defeat Ahom forces under Lachit Borphukan in a forced challenge. 10k Ahom soldiers were killed. This would be reversed a few years later in the Battle of Saraighat, two years later, in 1671 CE.

Background: A few years after shivAjI’s escape, rAmasiMha was sent by Awrangzeb to capture assam. His efforts at psychological warfare and dissent bore fruit when King Chakradhwaja Singha gave Lachit Borphukan and his commanders an ultimatum to attack mogols the very next day. Lachit was bewildered - charging the superior Rajput cavalry would be suicidal and that a naval engagement with the Mughals would be more feasible.

Lachit Borphukan had accepted rAmasiMha’s challenge and prepared a force of 40,000 men under four commanders. However, he led Ram Singh to believe that the Ahom army was only 20,000-strong. So the Rajput king sent only 10,000 soldiers under the command of Mir Nawab and madanavatI. Madanavati’s carnage on horseback only ended after she was shot dead by a stray bullet. Lachit’s hidden reserves then turned the tide. rAmasiMha became angry and then sent in the entire Rajput cavalry along with Mughal veterans who had been standing by.

अनध्यायः

  • 18:37→06:11

When the next day is anadhyayana, for whatever reason, one must not perform adhyayana in the previous night.

हारीतः—
श्वोऽनध्यायेऽद्य शर्वर्यां नाधीयीत कदाचन॥
कालादर्शे—
यदा भवेदनध्यायतिथिरुत्तरभागिनी।
तदा पूर्वतिथौ रात्रौ नाधीयीतेति निश्चयः॥

भारते स्वातन्त्र्य-दिनोत्सवः #७७

Event occured on 1947-08-15 (gregorian).

On this day, British finally quit India after splitting it into two (owing to bloody Muslim League strikes, and it’s own geopolitical interests) inimical parts - resulting in many decades of Anglicized Indian rule (which was nonetheless better than British times), rapid fall in infant mortality and sharp rise in life expectancy.

महाबलिकर-सन्धिः #२७१

Event occured on 1753-08-15 (gregorian).

On this day, Duch East India Company submitted to a peace treaty with mArtANDa varma of tirvanantapuram - abandoning all hopes of political and commercial dominance in keraLa, agreeing not to obstruct the Raja’s expansion, and in turn, to sell to him arms and ammunition.

Context

In 1730s, mArtANDa varma started annexing and consolidating keraLa kingdoms. Dutch tried to stop him, but lost crucial battles. Some prominent dutch prisoners had switched to serving and upgrading mArtANDa varma’s army.
