Khushal Singh had occupied the town of Jalandhar by narrowly defeating its ruler Shaikh [[Nizam-ud-Din]]. He made Jalandhar his headquarters and started living there. Khushal Singh added more precincts to the territory which he had inherited from his predecessor. His associates also captured many places. He was opposed to the just Muslim rulers. He seized [[Ludhiana]] and Banur with the help of [[Amar Singh (Patiala)|Amar Singh]], the ruler of [[Patiala]], who afterwards received half of the district of Banur. During the troubles which followed the death of Amar Singh, Khushal Singh seized the whole district.
