The Ahluwalia-Ramgarhia War was fought in 1776-1778 between a Coalition led by Jassa Singh Ahluwalia against the Ramgarhia Misl. It was primarily caused by an attack on Jassa Singh Ahluwalia by the Ramgarhia Sardars, leading to a conflict over territorial control in Punjab in which the Ramgarhia Sardars got expelled

Background

After fighting on opposite sides during the campaign at Pathankot, the long-standing animosity between Jassa Singh Ahluwalia of the Ahluwalia Misl and Jassa Singh Ramgarhia of the Ramgarhia Misl reappeared in 1775. The two leaders clashed in Zahura which is close to the Beas River. A gunshot wound to Jassa Singh Ramgarhia during the subsequent fighting forced him to leave the field. Jassa Singh Ahluwalia was able to declare victory in the engagement as a result. Later, Baghel Singh of the Karorsinghia Misl was given the area of Zahura.

Early Skirmishes

Jassa Singh Ahluwalia, was on his way to a fair at Achal, which is close to Batala, in 1775. Mali Singh, a commander of the Ramgarhia Misl and Jassa Singh Ramgarhia's brother, was simultaneously in charge of a detachment traveling from Sri Hargobindpur to Batala. On their separate travels, the two parties came into collision with one other, which led to a bloody altercation.
