Question:
Which of the following statements is/are NOT correct? (i) The battle of Nadaun was fought between Raja Bhim Chand of Kahlur and the Mughals. (ii) In the battle of 'Dhalog' Raja Janardhan of Chamba was defeated. (iii) Raja of Hindur Hari Chand was killed by Guru Govind Singh in the battle of 'Bhangani'. (iv) The Gurkhas defeated the Kangra forces at 'Mahal Morian' in 1906. Choose the right answer:

Options

(1) None of these
(2) All of these
(3) (ii) and (iii)
(4) (i) and (iv)
Answer: (4) (i) and (iv)

Explanation:
Statement (i) is incorrect: The Battle of Nadaun (1691) was fought between the combined hill rajas (including Raja Bhim Chand of Kahlur) and the Mughal forces under Alif Khan — Guru Gobind Singh also participated on the side of the hill rajas. However, the statement as framed implies a direct confrontation between Bhim Chand and Mughals which is partially correct but oversimplified. Statement (ii) is correct: Raja Janardhan of Chamba was indeed defeated in the battle of Dhalog. Statement (iii) is correct: In the Battle of Bhangani (1688), Guru Gobind Singh defeated a coalition of hill rajas; Hari Chand of Hindur was killed in this battle. Statement (iv) is incorrect: The Gurkhas invaded Kangra earlier (around 1806-09) — "1906" is clearly incorrect; and "Mahal Morian" as a battle site in 1906 is not historically documented.
