The Maratha–Portuguese War of 1683–1684' or Sambhaji's Invasion of Goa[1][2][3] refers to the Maratha invasion of the Portuguese-controlled portions of Goa and Bombay areas of Konkan.[4] The conflict between the Mahratta Confederacy and the Portuguese in Goa and Bombay; continued on various fronts in between 1683 and 1684.
The Portuguese had maintained relations with the Marathas under Shivaji, in order to check the Deccan Sultanates. In 1682, two years after the death of Shivaji, Sambhaji started arming & fortifying the border along Portuguese territories. The concerned Portuguese then aligned themselves with the Moghals.
