Bahmani–Vijayanagara War (1470–1481): Difference between revisions

===Loss of Belagaum (1474)===

Following the capture of Belgaum in 1472 CE, the Bahmani Sultan shifted his focus toward expanding into the [[Telangana]] region. In 1474 CE, he launched an expedition against Wairagarh and seized it from Jatak Roy. During this period, Perkatapha, dissatisfied with the transfer of power, renounced allegiance and led a revolt by occupying the island of Goa. Upon learning of the uprising, [[Mahmud Gawan]] sought royal approval to suppress the rebellion, subdue Perkatapha, and extend Bahmani control over Kanara and Vijayanagar territories. Belgaum is believed to have been secured during the subsequent campaign, marking its permanent loss to the [[Vijayanagara Empire]].
