Talking History |5| Delhi: The rise of Tughlaq Dynasty

[@ankitsharma4523]

Professor Sunil Kumar died in 2021. Many moons ago, I had the good fortune of attending a couple of his guest lectures when he came to Stephen's on the request of one of our professors, to talk about the turkic origins of the Delhi Sultanate. In my limited academic experience, I have not heard a professor deliver lectures with such immaculate style. May his stories be told for a long time.

Thanks Rajya Sabha TV & all team members for making such brilliant video.

[@tinatuna7620]

I can't believe you aren't monetizing these videos. This series is amazing.

[@shubhamdubey7349]

Not so noble thought

These are produced or sponsored by Government of India. Besides, RSTV CEO Gurdeep Sappal said in answer to a PIL "The idea behind RSTV was not to cater to the common minimum denominator. The Indian Express doesn't sell much, but everybody who matters reads it. Similarly the people who matter should watch RSTV. It was decided not to take ads, Parliament should not take money from anyone."

I like history.

[@rachitaurora]

In 1333, Muhammad Bin Tughlaq led the Qarachil expedition to the Kullu-Kangra region of modern-day Himachal Pradesh in India. Historians like Badauni and Ferishta wrote that Tughluq originally wanted to cross the Himalayas and invade China. However, he faced local resistance in Himachal. Prithvi Chand II of the Hindu Katoch kingdom of Kangra defeated the army of Muhammad Bin Tughlaq which was not able to fight in the hills. Nearly all his 100,000 soldiers perished and were forced to retreat. < could've also mentioned this...

[@venom19010]

Fake, Qarachil was Kumaon

[@browser3152]

Would've been great if he'd conquered China. We might have evaded Chinese imports in present times.

Kindly do justice to IBN-Batuta, who wrote about the court details, when not a day passed when barbarism of Mohammed bin Tughlaq was not visible with human blood and flesh...

[@Htondak]

Superb video I like the way u present rstv Specialy edit or music Thanks Rajat Special thanks to your editor Lovley

[@AloofManish]

Wonderful documentary on Tughlaqs, with highly informative narration. Pointing out a small error “Ibn Batuta is described as Arab traveller at 11:55, whereas he was Moroccan”

[@shubhamdubey7349]

There are Arabs in Morocco also.

[@AloofManish]

Shubham Dubey Ohk... Thanks for the correction

[@ashokmeena2055]

morocco is also arab

[@AloofManish]

Ashok Meena Got it. Thanks 🙏

[@ankitsharma4523]

Well to be fair to the original comment, ibn battuta, was most probably of Berber descent which is not the same as Arab. Even traditionally, morocco was part of the maghreb world more than the Arab world.

[@nadeemjokhio969]

These tughlaq were central asians right?

[@Alakhana]

No they were of Punjabi origin from Multan. Amir Khusrau in his Tughluq Nama makes no mention of Tughluq's arrival in India from a foreign land, which seems to imply he was born in India. His own court poet states that Tughluq described himself frankly as a man of no importance ("awara mard") in his early life and career.[17] Tughlaq Nama declares Tughlaq to have been a minor chief of humble origins.[18][19] Tughluq was a Multani by origins.

[@Alakhana]

One of the only sources which claims they were Turks comes from Ibn Battuta who claims they came from the "Qarauna tribe of the Turks" based on the claim of a Sufi saint Rukn-e-Alam. However, this is not corroborated by other contemporary sources and the Qara'unas were Mongols or associated with Mongol armies, whom Tughlaq despised and it is highly unlikely that Tughlaq was a Qara'una. And also Amir Khusrau in his Tughluq Nama makes no mention of Tughluq's arrival in India from a foreign land, which seems to imply he was not of a central Asian origin. His own court poet states that Tughluq described himself frankly as a man of no importance ("awara mard") in his early life and career. Tughlaq Nama declares Tughlaq to have been a minor chief of humble origins. Tughluq was a Multani/Punjabi by origin.

[@papazataklaattiranimam]

@@Alakhana B. P. Saksena 1992, p. 461,567:Tughlaq was one of the Turkish slaves of Balban and that his mother was a woman of a local Jat family. But this statement lacks confirmation by contemporary authorities. (II):-Whether Ghiyasuddin Tughlaq was son of a Jat woman has not been proved or disproved" Firishta, who travelled to Tughluq's former patrimony of Deopalpur to inquire about his early life, claimed that no one knew anything about him, save for a story that his father was a Turkic slave belonging to Ulugh Khan Balban.37

[@papazataklaattiranimam]

@@Alakhana did you even change wikipedia😅 Such an expression did not exist before.

[@Alakhana]

@@papazataklaattiranimam I’m pretty sure the record of a courtesan from that time period (Amir Khusrow) is more reliable than a historian which came centuries later. I’m sure your source comes from a reliable historian but it is recorded that Tughluq himself claimed to be of humble origins and didn’t have a foreign origin (which could suggest he wasn’t a Mamluke )And the official genealogy of the Tughluqs was supposedly Persian (it was most likely flattery). Irregardless claiming them as solely Turkic is illogical considering there is various claims (some official) of their origins.
