Agham Lohana was a Buddhist Governor of Brahmanabad condemnatory under Hindu King of Alor, Rai Sahasi and was contemporary of Brahmin Raja, the Chach of Alor. He belonged to Lohana clan.
In the Chachnama we find frequent mention of a chief Agham Lohana who was ruler of Brahmanabad with their two terretories lakha to the west of Lohana and Sama to the south of Lohana (Nerron) Narayankot Hyderabad, Sindh in the time of Chach 636AD.[1]Agham Lohana was a chieftain of Lohana caste and professed Buddhism[2][3]
When passing away of Rai Sahasi, King of Alor ,the queen fall in love with Chach who was till then a Minister in court of Rai Sahashi. He became ruler by marrying widow of Rai Sahashi. Chach fought with Maharath, the Rana of Chittor, who attacked Alor to avenge the death of Sahashi but was killed by Chach by a stratagem & treachery. Chach started to extend his kingdom and sent a messenger to Agham Lohana to surrender. Later Chach marched against Agham Lohana, who was killed in the battle. When Agham died ,his son was established in the government of the country. He withdrew from fight and the fort fell in to bands of Chach.
Chach married Agham’s widow as a political strategy and gave the hand of his own niece to Agham’s son Sarhand. Chach was Brahmin by caste.
Further, Chach laid restrictions on Lohanas and Jats such as[3]to break their morale and reduce their social status.
