Later he captured Thanesar leaving Pehova in the possession of his brother, Bhag Singh. Bhanga Singh and Bhag Singh commanded a force of 750 horse and 250 foot. In 1779, Bhanga Singh aligned himself with the Mughal chief, Abdul Ahd Khan, to recover his territory from Raja Amar Singh of Patiala. In January 1786, Bhanga Singh along with other Sikh chiefs entered the Ganga Doab at the head of 5,000 horse and ravaged Meerut, Hapur and Garh Mukteshvar. In April 1789, Mahadji Scindia, regent of the Mughal empire, confirmed Bhanga Singh`s right to rakhi or cess levied for protection in some of the areas under his influence.
