The following information is inaccurate:

In 1639, Shahaji was stationed at Bangalore, which was conquered from the nayaks who had taken control after the demise of the Vijayanagara Empire. He was asked to hold and settle the area.[21]

The following is a more accurate version:

In 1638 Ran-dulha Khan, the general of the Adil Shahi prince of Bijapur, captured Bangalore from Kempe Gauda and made it his chief residence, the Gauda retiring to his stronghold in Savandurga. On Randulha Khan's return to court, Shahji, the second in command, was appointed to govern the districts subdued by the Bijapur forces in Karnataka and Dravida, named Carnatic Bijapur.
