On 18 May 1719, less than three months after his own accession, Rafi Ul-Darjat's uncle, Nekusiyar, assumed the throne at the Agra Fort as he thought he was more eligible for the post.
•
Only three months after Nekusiyar's enthronement, the fort surrendered and Nekusiyar was captured.
A major event during his reign was the defeat of his uncle Neku Siyar in August 1719 and the recapture of Agra Fort.
