However, there has been a demand to change the name of Tughlaq Lane since long. But you know who this Tughlaq was. Let us tell you in detail about it.
Who was Muhammad bin Tughlaq
Delhi, the capital of the country, has settled and destroyed many times since its inception. In Ethan, there is Ghulam dynasty, Chauhan dynasty, Tomar dynasty, Khilji dynasty, Tughlaq dynasty, Syed dynasty, Lodi Vandh and then the Mughal and then the British. Delhi has become the capital of India after independence. All the rulers sitting on the plank here have surprised the subjects with their decisions. Muhammad bin Tughlaq, the ruler of the Tughlaq dynasty, was also one of them.
Tughlaq did many experiments in his rule
The Tughlaq dynasty was established after the rulers of the Khilji dynasty. It was founded by Ghazi Malik. In 1320 AD, Gaisuddin Tughlaq sat on the throne and he died in 1325 after five years. After this, the king became Muhammad bin Tughlaq. However, many historians believe that Tughlaq was responsible for Walid’s death. Tughlaq is called a ruler who did many experiments in his rule. He had worked like token currency, improvement in agriculture sector, transferring the capital from Delhi to Daulatabad. He was more educated than other rulers. He ended discrimination on the basis of breed and appointed qualified officers.
Due to this, Tughlaqi decree was named
Muhammad bin Tughlaq ruled the throne of Delhi for 26 years in the 14th century. Its name is also known for Badshaht as well as long-wide empire. He had strictly implemented many decisions overnight, which is still remembered today. It is also called Tughlaqi decree. According to history, during his reign, the geographical area of Delhi Sultanate was more. Tughlaq, one of the very learned rulers, always doubted his relatives and wazirs and never considered any enemy less.
Tughlaq’s disputed decision
Shifting the capital Delhi to Daulatabad was the most discussed among the disputed decisions of Tughlaq. Actually, the poor aspect of this decision was that it also forced the population of Delhi to shift to Daulatabad. It is said that many of the people who were forcibly shifted died on the way. Daulatabad was a dry area, in such a situation, due to tremendous shortage of water, he had to transfer the capital to Delhi.
