Shekh La-al takes her property under control and she went back to her Fathers town. Now the rivalry was between Shekh La-al and the chauhans and definitely Shekh sahib was much more powerful,
Chauhans crafted a evil plan full of cowardice to murder Shekh La-al by inviting him on dinner,
At dinner all hosts and guests were without weapons but as Shekh La-al arrived he understood all game of chauhans when he got the glimpse of the hidden daggers inside dinner serving clothes, without even sitting there he turned giving excuse that he left his stick outside somewhere near his fort , chauhans got it right that there plan has been smelted; they followed Shekh La-al and besides all his endeavour chauhan swords find their way through the Shekh La-al’s chest, just outside the fort gate, only a gate was there between the light of life and darkness of death and being short just a leap Shekh La-al lost the race of life; the news reached Lal Quila, Delhi, to Shah Jahan and forces marched from Delhi marking the end of chauhan dominance in incholi.
