Battle of Gandgarh
In 1820, Yousafzai once again revolted against the Sikh Empire, which led to the Battle of Gandgarh. Hazara was under Diwan Ram Singh with thousands of well-equipped soldiers; on the other hand, Yousafzai tribesmen were local zamindars. Yousafzai Afghans killed the governor of Hazara, Diwan Ram Daya.
