            Sansar Chand was the King of Kangra Kingdom. His territory was in east of Sutlej but capital was in west of Sutlej.

 Gorkha captured Nalagahrh Kingdom and reached east of Sutlej.  Kangra King Sansar Chand was aware of Gorkha power. Gorkha Army crossed Sutlej and attacked on Kangra. Sansar Chand Army fought back with Gorkha army and dispatched them. Gorkha were not in position to attack on Kangra as there were disturbing incidents taking place in Nepal. Gorkha did treaty with Kangra King Sansar Chand. Sutlej River became the dividing border between Nalagarh region of Gorkha and Kangra Kingdom.

 Amar Singh had to weaken the winning campaign as there were disturbing incidents taking place in Kathmandu.
