After Banda Singh and his followers were forced to vacate Sadhaura and Lohgarh after a long and tiring siege, all the garrison commanders of small villages started to fight against the Sikhs and cause troubles towards them.[1] Most of these commanders had gathered around at the village of Kiri Pathan. Because of this, all the Sikhs in Kahnuwan had all gathered under the leadership of Jagat Singh.[2]

On 27 March 1714, the Sikhs attacked Uman Ghazi, the chief of the village Kiri Pathan at his own village. They entered the fort of the Pathans and managed to slay them in large numbers.[3] An important commander named Muhamad Ishaq was killed in the course of the battle.[4] Booty worth 60,000 rupees in cash which belonged to all the residents of the village and the neighbouring village all were plundered by the Sikhs.[5]

2 weeks after this battle, Abdus Samad Khan and Zakariya Khan were ordered to go to Punjab and chastise all the Sikhs they could.[6]
