  • January 1360: Firuz Shah Tughluq of Delhi again invaded Bengal in 1359 when Ilyas Shah's successor Sikandar Shah took the throne. He felt Sikandar Shah had violated the terms of the treaty reached with his father and sought to place the son-in-law of one of Ilyas Shah's rivals as the sultan of Bengal. During the invasion, Sikandar Shah based himself in Ekdala fort like his father.
  • January 1360: The Delhi army besieged Ekdala fort for months. After growing exhausted of Bengal's climate, the Delhi Sultan reached a peace treaty with Sikandar Shah. Delhi recognized Sikandar as an independent ruler. The peace treaty ensured Bengal's independence for two centuries.
