Siege of Nargund
The Siege of Nargund occurred when the Kingdom of Mysore sent its General, Burhanuddin to besiege Nargund. In 1778, Tipu Sultan defeated the Marathas and captured Nargund.

Burhanuddin laid siege to Nargund and on July 29, 1785, Nargunt once again was conquered by the Kingdom of Mysore after Vyankatrao Bhave and Kalopant Pethe surrendered.
