The Maharaja also confiscated the jagir of Auwa. On hearing the sad news of the murder of her husband, Rani Ranawatji wanted to become Sati, but she was prevented by the 'Hakims' of Bali, Pali and Sojat, who had arrived at Auwa for the purpose. At this moment Rani Ranawatji thought of Thakur Budh Singh Champawat Balluote of Dhamli, and sent a message to him to assist her in becoming 'Sati'. Though the relations between Dhamli and Auwa at the time were strained, but Thakur Budh Singh decided to help Rani Ranawat Ji and along with his cavalry reached Auwa. He asked the 'Hakims' not to interfere in the traditional custom, and pleaded the case of Rani Ranawat Ji.

Rani Ranawatji sat on the pyre the traditional rites were performed, she gave abundant blessings to Thakur Budh Singh, thence the fire was lit and she became 'Sati'. The Maharaja of Jodhpur was annoyed at this illegal act of Thakur Budh Singh. As such, he confiscated his jagirs of Dhamli, Sarwad and 11 villages; but soon restored them.

The Marathas were defeated in the battle. It was a great humiliation for the Marathas. In 1790, to avenge the defeat, Madhavrao Scindia's commander again launched an attack on Jodhpur. Thakur Sambhu Singh, who was with Jodhpur forces, offered a stiff resistance, but could not stand long against the might of the Marathas. He was again wounded; his 13 sepoys were killed in action. The Marathas captured Sarwad,and Thakur Sambhu Singh had no option but to abandon Sarwad in 1791.
