Question
Short Answer Type Question:
What difference do you trace out in the region of Hindustan of the thirteenth century and the modem India?
Short Note
Solution
The term ‘Hindustan’ in the thirteenth century implied the areas of Punjab, Haryana, and the lands between the Ganga and Yamuna. Minhaj-i Siraj used the term in a political sense for lands consisting of a part of the dominions of the Delhi Sultanate. The areas included in this term shifted with the extent of the Sultanate. However, it never included south India.
