[1] Despite having a claim to the throne of Jaipur, Madho Singh initially lacked the support to challenge Ishwari's rule.

However, when his brother traveled to Delhi to make his introductions to Emperor Muhammad Shah, Madho revolted with the help of his uncle, Jagat Singh.

Representatives from both parties signed the peace accord on 19 December 1744, and so Jagat and Madho began to disband their army.

However, Jagat Singh was unwilling (and possibly unable)[1] to pay the Maratha mercenaries he had hired; these Maratha mercenaries attacked Madho Singh and burned their supplies, greatly weakening the pair and forcing Madho and Jagat to retreat to Udaipur.

Bhupati Charan, the commander of the Kota forces made a strong stand but was wounded and carried away from the field.
