- The Battle of Nuwakot also called Siege of Nuwakot or Invasion of Nuwakot was fought in Nuwakot in 1744. Nuwakot was controlled by the Kingdom of Kantipur and it was an important location as it had a trade route to Tibet. The Gorkha Kingdom previously attacked twice by Nara Bhupal Shah and his son Prithvi Narayan Shah respectively. To prepare for the war Prithvi Narayan Shah visited Varanasi to get war materials, ammunition, acquire weapons, train the soldiers, and Pilgrims. He improved his army personnel and included people from any caste including the blacksmiths, cobblers, sweepers, Damai, and anyone who was bodied and physically fit was able to join the crew. The Gorkha Kingdom attacked Nuwakot on 26 September 1744 as astrologer Kulananda Dhakal said it was the auspicious day for launching the attack. The day before, Shah commanded Kaji Kalu Pande to be ready for a strike, the Gorkhas, got together with their weapons, and the king split the army into three groups. Gorkhas won the battle on 1 October 1744. (en)
