1576 (July 12)
On July 12, 1576, Mughal forces defeated Daud Khan Karrani at the Battle of Rajmahal. The victory marked the collapse of the Karrani regime, often treated as the terminal phase of independent Bengal Sultanate power, and accelerated Bengal's incorporation into the Mughal imperial framework.
1612
By 1612, the long Mughal conquest phase in Bengal was largely complete after sustained campaigns against regional resistance networks, including the Baro-Bhuiyan bloc. While local variation remained, the balance of power had shifted decisively toward Mughal provincial rule after the post-Rajmahal era.
