    Description: Rana Jagat Singh was the ruler of Baghal, when Gurkha invaders captured the Arki Fort. Rana Jagat Singh had to take refuge in Nalagarh. From 1806 to 1815, the Gurkha General Amar Singh Thapa holds Arki as his headquarters to make further advances into Himachal Pradesh as far as Kangra. The Gurkhas were, however, driven out by Rana Jagat Singh assisted by Sir David Ochterlony and the British forces during the Gurkha War in 1815–1816.
