He extended his dominions[2] by the subjugation of Marwar and the destruction of its chief stronghold, Berahtgarh, on the ruins of which he founded Badnore. It was in this time that the tins and silver Mines of Jawar were discovered in the country conquered from the bhils by his father. Rana Lakha raided as far as Gaya in Bihar and put an end to pilgrimage tax there. With the revenues thus augmented he rebuilt the palaces and temples destroyed by Alauddin Khilji, excavated reservoirs and lakes, raised immense ramparts to dam their waters, and constructed a number of forts.
