Mirza Raja Jai Singh vs Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo

Mirza Raja Jai Singh led the Mughal army against Shivaji at Purandar. After a siege, Shivaji surrendered and signed the Treaty of Purandar, ceding forts and agreeing to serve the Mughals.

Jai Singh was appointed commander of the Mughal Deccan campaign. He subdued several Maratha chiefs and expanded Mughal influence, but his efforts were undermined by Aurangzeb's distrust.

Jai Singh negotiated the Treaty of Purandar with Shivaji. Shivaji surrendered 23 forts, paid indemnity, and agreed to join the Mughal campaign in the Deccan. In return, he was granted the title of Mansabdar.

Dagalo led the RSF (then Janjaweed) in the Darfur conflict, where they were accused of war crimes, including ethnic cleansing and mass atrocities against non-Arab populations. The conflict resulted in hundreds of thousands of deaths and millions displaced.

Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo was appointed Commander of the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), a paramilitary group formed from Janjaweed militias. The RSF became a key force in Sudan's conflicts, including the Darfur war and later the 2023 civil war.

Dagalo was appointed Deputy Chairman of the Sovereignty Council, making him the second-highest ranking official in Sudan's transitional government. This position gave him significant political power alongside General al-Burhan.

Dagalo's RSF launched a major offensive against the Sudanese Armed Forces in April 2023, triggering a full-scale civil war. The conflict caused widespread destruction, a humanitarian crisis, and the displacement of millions in Sudan.
