With reference to the reign of Muhammad-bin-Tughlaq, explain the following:
His attempts to transfer the capital from Delhi to Daulatabad.
उत्तर
During Muhammad-bin-Tughlaq’s reign, the empire had also spread to the south. He shifted his capital to Devagiri near modern Aurangabad and renamed it Daulatabad. He did it for the following reasons:
- Daulatabad was centrally located from where he could control the Deccan territories; and
- Delhi was in the grip of severe famine; and
- Delhi was constantly threatened by the Mongol invasions. He ordered the people of Delhi including religious heads to shift to Daulatabad in 1328-29.
