=== Shivaji's Campaign === In August 1678, the Maratha Emperor [[Shivaji]] sent an army of 1,500 horse to capture [[Poonamallee]]. While the Maratha army camped near [[Kanchipuram]], news reached the Council at Fort St George by means of the company's spies that the Marathas intended to proceed upon Madras, Sadras and Pulicat. However, the information proved to be false as the Maratha troops immediately returned to the north from whence they came after the siege of Poonamallee.
