The siege of Panhala was one of the important conflicts between Mughals and Marathas during the Deccan Wars between 1694 and 1696. Jahandar Shah laid siege to Panhala but was unable to capture the fort. Muqarrab Khan and Udwat Singh were sent to the relief, but they failed in taking the fort. Aurangzeb called Jahandar Shah back and sent Bidar Bhakt to continue the siege, but he, too, failed. He eventually was recalled from Panhala to take up the battle against Santaji. Feroz Jung was sent against the Marathas, but this effort too was unsuccessful.
