Siege of Janjira[edit]

There are several edits done without having historical information on Wikipedia page of seige of janjira.I want to correct it. 1) 'Siddi-Mughal victory and Strategic Victory of Mughals' In real:- First of all mughals was not present in this seige,this seige was between navel of Maratha&siddis of janira.There are no another power participated in this seige&for seige result there are 2 views of historical documents regarding this,first one is this seige was completely resulted in solely siddis victory and second one which seems more accurate that this seige was resulted 'Stalemate' as both sides suffered heavy losses and also there is not mentioned that any party was victorious because Sambhaji was very close to capture fort but due to mughals advance on kalyan he goes to deal with Mughal army and here siddis faced huge damage on fort so they didn't interfared between Maratha Mughal war for many years atleast in reign of Sambhaji, so stalemate seems more accurate. It can also say that this was silently strategic of Marathas. 3)'Sambhaji pays tribute to Mughals' In real:- The above statement is most baseless statement added by random user on Wikipedia page as there is nothing connection of mughals and also after there is nothing mentioned in any historical record. In opposite after seige Sambhaji defeated mughals under Hussain ali khan at kalyan bhiwandi.

Here are some sources regarding this seige&I will also add other sources soon.. Richard, M. Eaton (2005).
