Describe Aurangzeb’s Administration under the following headline:
Consequences of Emperor’s Long Absence from the Capital
Solution
Consequences of Emperor’s Long Absence from the Capital: The Kingdoms of Bijapur and Golconda were finally conquered and annexed (1686-87). But the Emperor’s long absence from the Capital led to the utter neglect of administration of Delhi. This emboldend the rebels to challenge the Mughal authority in the North. The troops were also strongly dissatisfied with Emperor’s authority because of arrears of payment. Before Aurangzeb died in 1707, the disintegration of the capital was obvious.
