	The harbour of Rajapur had been in prominence in the 17th century. Tavernier, in section 142, chapter 12 of the first volume of his book mentions that many travellers did the journey between Daman and Rajapur on the western coast by sea, because the land route was very bad and fraught with danger. In 1638 the English opened a factory at Rajapur. In 1661, owing to a feud between Chattrapati Shivaji, the pre-eminent Maratha king and the English factors at Rajapur, the former attacked and destroyed the factory at Rajapur. He also took English prisoners and held them captive for a few years. Between Shivaji&#39;s death in 1680 and Aurangzeb&#39;s demise in 1707, three separate instances of Mughal involvement in the region took place. The first happened&#39; soon after Aurangzeb&#39;s move to the Deccan from the north and his arrival at Aurangabad in late 1681. Prince Mu&#39;azzam, his eldest son, had been in charge of Deccan affairs on and off from 1667 till this date. He was asked to launch an attack on the region of `Ram-Darrah (literally &#39;Ram Valley&#39;) situated in Konkan. &#39;Ram Darrah&#39; was in all probability the Rain Ghat pass, an arterial route in the vicinity of Rajapur and Sangameshwar, linking South Konkan with the plains. This attack did not achieve much, so in September 1683, Mu&#39;azzam launched a second campaign that lasted until May 1684. Khali Khan; the Historian of Aurangzeb&#39;s reign and his close confidant, describes it as follows. In 1689, the Maratha, Chhatrapati Sambhaji, was captured at Sangameshwar, north of Rajapur, by sheikh nizam alias Muqarrab khan, a mughal commander, the raid was the last major mughal involvement in this part of Konkan.&nbsp;
