The Battle of Torna was fought on between the Mughal Empire and the Maratha Kingdom. The Mughal emperor, Aurangzeb, ordered a siege Torna Fort. His commanders, Muhammad Amin Khan Turani and Tarbiyat Khan, defeated the Maratha occupants. In recognition of the difficult defences the Mughals had to overcome to capture this fort, Aurangzeb renamed it as Futulgaib.[2]
