ABSTRACT
In the morning of the 16th, the Indian Force, particularly its infantry, had positioned itself along the wooded steep paall of the Jetthu Baba Johar and the outhouses of the village Nasibpur. Octogenarian Rao Kanwar Singh of Nasibpur told the author that his forefathers used to say, ‘Rao Tularam lost the battle because his army had abandoned the paalls of Jetthu Baba Johar before the arrival of the British force, and that proved a blunder. The English writers, including the commanding officer who succeeded Gerrard, were confused about Narnaul and Nasibpur. The position of the Indian forces, who had their encampment near the fort, has been shown towards south of the village of Nasibpur at the moment when the British column had reached. The location according to local folklore was then somewhere towards Nasibpur from the Narnaul jail.
