He then proceeded to place his younger brother <a href="/wiki/Alagiri_Nayak" title="Alagiri Nayak">Alagiri Nayak</a> on the throne of Thanjavur. This was resented by Rayasam Venkanna, a high-ranking official in the court of Thanjavur who supported the cause of Chengamala Dasu, the deposed son of Vijayaraghava, the late Nayak of Thanjavur. He proceeded to the court of <a href="/wiki/Ali_Adil_Shah_II" title="Ali Adil Shah II">Ali Adil Shah II</a> of <a href="/wiki/Bijapur" title="Bijapur">Bijapur</a> along with the minor Chengamaladas and requested his help. </p><p>The Adil Shah sent Venkoji to invade <a href="/wiki/Thanjavur" title="Thanjavur">Thanjavur</a> and restore the throne to the old line of <a href="/wiki/Nayaks_of_Tanjavur" class="mw-redirect" title="Nayaks of Tanjavur">nayaks</a>. A Sanskrit manuscript <i>Bosalavamsavali</i> narrates how Venkoji conquered Arni and proceeded to Thanjavur to liberate it from the shackles of the Nayak of Tiruchirapalli. The manuscript further narrates that While camping at Tirumalapadi near Tiruvadi, God appeared to him in a dream and asked him not to leave for home. However, Wilkes assigns different reasons for the usurpation by the Maratha, Venkoji. He is of the view that Venkoji was not pleased with the conduct of Chengamaladas who refused to pay the war expenses. </p><p>Assisted by Rayasam Venkanna who had switched sides once more, Venkoji conquered Ayyampettai and defeated Alagiri who had now also fallen out with his brother <a href="/wiki/Chokkanatha_Nayak" title="Chokkanatha Nayak">Chokkanatha Nayak</a> as well as Changamaldas and secured the throne for himself.

With this aim in mind, he made a treaty with <a href="/wiki/Golconda" title="Golconda">Golconda</a>, took <a href="/wiki/Gingee" title="Gingee">Gingee</a> and proceeded to Thanjavur after conquering all the lands north of the <a href="/wiki/Coleroon" class="mw-redirect" title="Coleroon">Coleroon</a> river. Shivaji camped on the north bank of <a href="/wiki/Kollidam_River" title="Kollidam River">Kollidam River</a> 10 miles north of <a href="/wiki/Thanjavur" title="Thanjavur">Thanjavur</a> and invited Ekoji for discussions. Shivaji didn't try to cross this distributary of Kaveri, to give a clear signal to his brother that he wanted to settle the matters of inheritance amicably. Shivaji claimed a right to Shahji's inheritance. It was a Ekoji's minister <a href="/w/index.php?title=Raghunath_Pant_Hanumante&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Raghunath Pant Hanumante (page does not exist)">Raghunath Pant Hanumante</a> who had brought this matter of inheritance to Shivaji's notice. Although Shivaji was initially quite unwilling to state a claim on his father's jagir, but eventually he accepted the idea to achieve higher goals for <i>Swarajya</i>. Before visiting, Shivaji sometime in January 1677 at <a href="/wiki/Satara_(city)" title="Satara (city)">Satara</a>, Raghunath Pant Hanumante had visited Golconda and had drawn out a golden leaf of diplomacy. He met Qutub Shah's brahmin ministers <a href="/w/index.php?title=Akanna&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Akanna (page does not exist)">Akanna</a> and <a href="/wiki/Madanna" class="mw-redirect" title="Madanna">Madanna</a> and all three had a consensus on the expansion of <i>Swarajya</i>. Raghunath Pant's brother Janardan Pant Hanumante was in Shivaji's service. He pressed upon <a href="/wiki/Qutub_Shah" class="mw-redirect" title="Qutub Shah">Qutub Shah</a> to have a friendship treaty with Shivaji. Qutub Shah was much willing as he was under pressure from both <a href="/wiki/Bijapur" title="Bijapur">Bijapur</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Mughals" class="mw-redirect" title="Mughals">Mughals</a>. Shivaji's approach to <a href="/wiki/Tanjore" class="mw-redirect" title="Tanjore">Tanjore</a> was thus preceded by a long circuitous march through <a href="/wiki/Bijapur" title="Bijapur">Bijapur</a> territory to Golconda and then directly southwards. The two brothers stayed together more than a week and had lengthy discussions. While Shivaji pressed for a division of jagir, Ekoji remained tight lipped and noncommittal. One night he secretly arranged for a barge and fled the camp. Pained Shivaji decided to turn back to <a href="/wiki/Raigarh" title="Raigarh">Raigad</a> avoiding an open conflict with his brother. Administration and control of the newly conquered territories was left with his Sarnaubat <a href="/wiki/Hambir_Rao_Mohite" class="mw-redirect" title="Hambir Rao Mohite">Hambir Rao Mohite</a> and others like <a href="/w/index.php?title=Harji_Raje_Mahadik&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Harji Raje Mahadik (page does not exist)">Harji Raje Mahadik</a>, <a href="/wiki/Santaji_Ghorpade" title="Santaji Ghorpade">Santaji Ghorpade</a>, <a href="/w/index.php?title=Vitthal_Pildev_Atre&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Vitthal Pildev Atre (page does not exist)">Vitthal Pildev Atre</a> and <a href="/w/index.php?title=Raghunath_Pant_Hanumate&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Raghunath Pant Hanumate (page does not exist)">Raghunath Pant Hanumate</a> himself; with <a href="/wiki/Gingee" title="Gingee">Gingee</a> as the centre of new territories. Ekoji I reacted by launching regular military campaigns into Santoji's territory with the intention of driving him away. However, Shivaji's army handed him a crushing defeat taking many prisoners. Ekoji himself fled. This confrontation took place near <a href="/w/index.php?title=Valikandapuram&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Valikandapuram (page does not exist)">Valikandapuram</a> on 16 November 1677. Shivaji got this news, when he was at <a href="/wiki/Gadag" class="mw-redirect" title="Gadag">Gadag</a> on his way back. He wrote a letter of retribution, but still expressing his will for a reconciliation on 1 March 1678. Meanwhile, he had a correspondence with Raghunath Pant. A very hesitant Ekoji succumbed to his weak military position and his wife Deepabai's strong persuasion. Ultimately, Ragunath Pant was invited from <a href="/wiki/Gingee" title="Gingee">Gingee</a> for discussions. Raghunath Pant enjoyed full confidence of Shivaji and knew his heart and mind and his future plans and intentions. Accordingly, a 19 point treaty was drafted and sent to Shivaji for his ratification. Shivaji signed the same. The core of this treaty was (1) All the <a href="/wiki/Bijapur" title="Bijapur">Bijapur</a> territory claimed to be under Shahji's jagir and which was recently won by Shivaji was returned back to Deepabai (territories around <a href="/wiki/Bangalore" class="mw-redirect" title="Bangalore">Bangalore</a> with a annual revenue of 2 lac hons) and Ekoji (region of 7 lac hons around Tanjor). (2) Ekoji was weaned away from the Bijapur's Adilshahi and his Muslim advisers as he was forbidden from <i>Harbouring any anti Hindu element in his realm</i> (Article 6). Article 17 stated that Raghunath Pant would have ancestral jagir of 1 lac hons; underlining Raghunath Pant's vital role in <i>Dakshin Digvijay</i>. However, in 1680, Bijapur succumbed to the invasions of Shivaji Maharaj and handed over the administration of all lands to the north of the <a href="/wiki/Coleroon" class="mw-redirect" title="Coleroon">Coleroon</a> river to Shivaji Maharaj. Ekoji I was forced to become a vassal of Shivaji Maharaj and pay him tribute. On the death of Shivaji Maharaj, however, the tribute was stopped and Thanjavur retained its independent existence.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Alliance_with_Ramnad">Alliance with Ramnad</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Vyankoji_Bhosale&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Alliance with Ramnad"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The chiefs of <a href="/wiki/Ramnad" class="mw-redirect" title="Ramnad">Ramnad</a> had been vassals of the Nayaks of <a href="/wiki/Madurai" title="Madurai">Madurai</a>.
