According to Nag vanshavali written by Beniram Mahata, during reign of Pratap Karn, ghatwar kings rebelled. The king of Tamar indulged in plunder and loot. He seized fort of Nagvanshi king in Khukhragarh. Pratap Karn sought help of chief Baghdeo of Khayaragarh Baghdeo. Baghdeo was made Fauzdar of Karra Pargana and he repressed rebellion. The son of king of Tamar made king of Karnpura but he did not paid tax for tree years. Baghdeo was sent to Karnpura to extract tax. Baghdeo defeated king of Kapardeo and killed him. He also destroyed their fort Mahudigarh. Then He declared himself king of Karnpura. For this help Pratap Karn declared Baghdeo as King of Karnpura which gives rise to Ramgarh Raj.[1][2][3]
