Description
xCasi Raja Pundit, a mutasaddi or secretary in the service of Suja-ud-daula, Vazir of Oudh, was present at the third battle of Panipat and wrote an account of it in Persian. His account was translated into English in 1791 by Lt. Col. James Brown.
It is the most detailed account we possess of the battle, and is the impartial narrative of an eye-witness. The narrative brings alive larger than life personalities from history — Sadhashivrao Bhao, Ahmed Shah Abdali, and Ibrahim Gardi, among others. The Maratha Empire was the pre-eminent power in the subcontinent in the eighteenth century.
