Answer 1

1.On the way to Pune, Shaistakhan captured the towns of Shirval, Shivapur and Saswad.

2.Dilerkhan knew that Shivaji could not be defeated as long as he was the master of Purandar. He, therefore, laid siege to this powerful fort.

3.After he defeated Shaista Khan, Mughal viceroy Aurangzeb sent a force of 10,000 soldiers under the leadership of Maharaja Jai Singh in 1664. .Jai Singh suggested Shivaji accompany him to Agra to meet Aurangzeb for sanctioning the treaty and also assured him that his journey will be taken care of.
