        Jasmadan Thapa reached to British camp with letter of Bamshah on the evening of same day. That letter was for Amar Singh Thapa, Ranjor Singh Thapa and other commanders in western region. Bamshah requested that let that letter reached to Ranjor Singh at Jaithok.
             Bamshah described the wars at Gannath, Sitoli and Lalmandi. At the end he illustrated Kumaon treaty as follows-
            We all four  ( Bamshah, Chamu Bhandari, Angad Sardar and Jasmadan Thapa) discussed and thought about the situation. We have weapons in ample quantity. However, the irregular (outsiders) deceived us. When anybody showed trust on somebody and that person deceived nobody can do anything. The real Gurkha soldiers were patriotic and outsiders became trustless. That was why , we thought not to spend the resources and power of the King. Gardner told that after ending war we (Gurkha ) should cross Kali River and we should write letter to King that he should appoint an advocate who would visit Governor General for deciding treaty conditions. In Kumaon, British are preparing conditions. There was cordial relationship between British and Gurkha commanders. You also return from West.  We are going to east by crossing Kali River. Have treaty with David Ochterloni and come back with your weapons and materials. We shall advice to King for appointing advocate for discussing with Governor General for treaty, Gardner sent that letter to David Ochterloni.
          Gurkha Commanders of Shrinagar Garhwal refusing Surrender  

            Gurkha soldiers of various Garhis of Kumaon obeyed the advice of Bamshah and surrendered before British army. The Nepalese soldiers at Naithana Garhi, Kumaon also surrendered.  The Gurkha soldiers of Lobhagarhi already vacated long back. There were Nepalese soldiers in Langur Garhi, Nagpur, Painkhanda and Shrinagar of Garhwal. Maximum Nepalese soldiers were in Shrinagar Garhwal. Bamshah wished that the Nepalese soldiers of Garhwal would also be given same facilities for going to Nepal region as given to Gurkha soldiers of Kumaon.
      Nicholas instructed his army for capturing Alaknanda and Pindar River valleys. Nicholas ordered his army to treat Gurkha well when they surrender. However, Nepalese commander Kaji Bakhtwar Singh Basnet s and soldiers were not ready for surrendering before British army till they get instruction from Amar Singh Thapa.
