Shahverdi Khan of Ganja

When this news reached Nader Shah, he ordered all Muslim landowners of the region and their families deported to Khorasan (northeastern Iran) as punishment.

Ughurlu Khan's lands on the other hand were divided - the Zangezur district was given to the beglarbeg (governor-general) of Tabriz; the autonomy of the Armenian Melikdoms was restored, and Borchalu, Qazzaq and Shamshadil were given to the Georgian king Teimuraz II of Kakheti (r. 1732–1762).

In ensuing years, his neighbor to the south Panah Ali Khan grew his power and took Zangezur - which was previously belonged to Shahverdi's ancestors - from Nader's brother.

[8] In 1750 and 1752, Teimuraz II of Kakheti attacked Ganja and forced Panah Ali to retreat from area at the request of Shahverdi who sent his brother Reza Qoli as an envoy.

Effectively Haji Chalabi's vassal now, he joined the campaign led by Agha Kishi beg against Teimuraz in 1752, but didn't achieve any results.

He later joined the campaign led by Haji and Muhammad II of Tabasaran against Karabakh Khanate in 1754, forcing Panah Ali to return some territories to Shahverdi.

[10] Panah later accused Shahverdi of inviting Muhammad Hasan to region and sent his son Ibrahim against him, who managed to capture the city and send the khan to Shusha.
