           Nalagarh (Solan District of Hindur kingdom) was gateway for various princely states of Himachal. On 14th November 1814, British army with 18 Pound guns on elephant reached near Nalagarh fort.   British army socilerds fired by 6 and 18 pound guns on wall of Nalagarh fort. The Nalagarh fort wall was demolished on 5th November. There were 95 Gurkha soldiers in  Targarh camp of Nalagarh.  British army captured 95 Gurkha soldiers. British commanders sent those captured soldiers to Ludhiana.
         Ochterlony established British army camp and depot at Nalagarh Fort. The Camp was need of the hour for communication with army of plains region.  Nalagarh was strong fort /camp for Amar Singh Thapa as he was staying at Arki. Ramgarh, Jorjoru, Targarh, hills and forts were on the road from Nalagarh to Arki. Goyala was in between Nalagarh and those hills.  When Ochterlony was marching for Goyala, Amar Singh Thapa reached to Ramgarh fort with his 3000 soldiers and 1000 soldiers of Bilaspur King. In fact the numbers of Gurkha soldiers with Amar Singh Thapa was minimal. Most of the soldiers were either from Garhwal or Himachal.  Amar Singh Thapa built fences for soldiers in many Garhis around Ramgarh. Amar Singh Thapa kept soldiers with fence in Kota Garhi too. Kota Garhi was one mile away south of Ramgarh. Now, Amar Singh Thapa was waiting for British army.
