Re: Countering the exaggerated Afghan rule hype propaganda regarding Balochistan
In the year 1142 A.H. (1729 A.D.) Murad Kaleri, tribal chiefs of the country near Siwi brought into subjection. Murad Kaleri was also known as Ganjah, was appointed by Main Noor Mohammad Kalhoro as an agent in charge of Siwí, and brought into subjection powerful chiefs like ** the land owner of Ganjobah, Ali Mardan Abro and Ibrahim Khan Abro, Jafar Khan Magsí,the barozai pathans in sibi. and the land owner of Ganjobah Ali Mardan Abro and Ibrahim Khan Abro chiefs of Nausharo, Kachhi, Mahyan Eri and Lahná Machhi, big land owners of Bhag Nari, Kala Khan and other chiefs the owners of Dhadhar.

Mián Núr Muhammad now commenced hostilities with Mír Abdulláh the Khan of Kalat, who was a Baloch and got the title of “the Eagle of Kóhistán” In 1143 A.H. (1730 A.D.) he marched and took the fort of Kartah from Mubárak Khán,
**
in 1144 A.H. (1731 A.D.) a force of Baloch, invaded the land of Káchhah and occupied that part of the country.**
In 1145 A.H. (1732 A.D.) the Mián’s son Muhammad went to Khiár and Wankár with a few selected chiefs and celebrated his marriage with a daughter of Murádalí Khán, a cousin of Khan of Kalat Mír Abdulláh Khán; and in the next year his other son Khudádád Khán also married a daughter of a kinsman of his. Thus the connection between the Siráís and the Baloch became stronger and closer by these marriages.(Ahmadzai 1995)
**
A period of expansion then commenced. Khan of Kalat Mir Ahmad Khan Baloch made successive descents on the plains of Sibi. ****Khan of Kalat Mir Samandar Khan Baloch extended his raids to Zhob, Bori, and Thal-Chotiali,and levied an annual sum of Rs. 40,000 from the Kalhoras and Khan of Kalat Mir Samandar Khan Baloch also led an expeditionary force into Loralai(Bori)and Zhob.He remained in the area for a month and collected a large booty from the pashtun tribes (G P Tate,1973) .
