In late 1309, the [[Delhi Sultanate]] ruler [[Alauddin Khalji]] sent his general [[Malik Kafur]] on an expedition to the [[Kakatiya]] capital [[Warangal]]. Malik Kafur reached Warangal in January 1310, after conquering a fort on the Kakatiya frontier and ransacking their territory. After a month-long siege, the [[Kakatiya]] ruler [[Prataparudra]] decided to negotiate a truce, and surrendered a huge amount of wealth to the Delhi Sultanate, besides promising to send annual [[tribute]]s to [[Delhi]].
