Dara has strong support from Shah Jahan, who has recovered enough from his illness to remain a strong factor in the struggle for supremacy, and his eldest son Sulaiman Shikoh had led his army to victory over Shah Shuja on February 14, 1658,
in the battle of Bahadurpur.
Dara had nevertheless been defeated by Aurangzeb and Murad on May 30 at the battlefield of Samugarh, thirteen kilometers from Agra.
Aurangzeb subsequently takes over Agra fort and on June 8 deposes his father.
