The Sultan of Bengal was Shamsuddin Firuz Shah in 1298 AD His general Zafar Khan was killed by the Hindu king of Bengal He captured Pandua and Saptagram and later became known as Zafar Khan Ghazi The Sultan's army was accompanied by a group of Islamists, including Maulanas and Sufis.
They asked the infidels to convert to Islam, otherwise they encouraged the Sultan to invade the infidel state This was the case with Balia Basanti At that time, Balia Basanti was a small Hindu kingdom It was the capital of the kingdom and had a garh (cantonment) alongside The area is still known to the common people as "Bagdi Raja's Garh.
" There is also a pond named after the king, Chandrapukur.
Nearby was the temple of Maa Kali, the king's goddess of pleasure The temple no longer exists, but the Kalipujo of the Bagdi king is there The descendants of the Bagdi king's subjects still perform that Kalipujo and it is known to the local people as "Dhada Maa Pujo " The name ".
Dhada" associated with the worship of Chandrapukur and Dhada Maa, the local people say, was Chandranath Dhada But many people also call the king Chandramohan The king was a matrabhak, devout devotee of Dev-Dwaja and a guest of Vatsal After bathing in the Chandrapukur daily, the temple worshipped Maa Kali, the goddess of pleasure.

Sultan Shamsuddin Firuz Shah was a Sufi devotee, whose name was Hazrat Shafiuddin Shaheed alias Shah Sufi Sultan The Sultan also followed the example of another Sufi saint, Syed Hussain Bukhari These two men could not convert the Hindu king of Balia Basanti to Islam and thus provoked the Sultan to invade the kingdom.
Thus, in 1298, the Sultanate was invaded by the Bagdi king of Balia Basanti, led by Zafar Khan and Syed Hussain Bukhari.
