Explanation

The events listed occurred during the Mughal War of Succession (1658–1659) following the illness of Shah Jahan. The correct chronological order is:

  • Defeat of Shuja near Banaras (Battle of Bahadurpur): February 1658. Shuja was defeated by the imperial army led by Sulaiman Shikoh (Dara's son).
  • Victory at Dharmat: April 1658. Aurangzeb and Murad Baksh defeated the imperial forces led by Maharaja Jaswant Singh.
  • Battle of Samugarh: May 1658. Aurangzeb and Murad decisively defeated Dara Shikoh, effectively securing Aurangzeb's path to the throne.
  • Battle of Deorai: March 1659. This was the final conflict where Aurangzeb crushed Dara Shikoh's last stand near Ajmer.

Thus, the sequence is 2, 4, 3, and 1.
