The Riyazu-s-salatin (Abdus Salam) 97 - **Language:** English ### [97](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.east.riyaz-al-salatin~en-abdus-salam.97) After this, Nawab 'Azam Khan was appointed to the Nezamat of Bengal. As he could not properly discharge the duties of a Governor, the work of administration fell into confusion. The Assamese, making an incursion, invaded and ravaged many of the pargannahs within the Imperial domains, and along with much riches and effects captured and carried away 'Abdus Salam, who had gone on an expedition to Gauhati with 1,000 Cavalry and numerous infantry. When this news reached the Emperor, the latter superseded 'Azam Khan, and appointed Islam Khan, who had much experience in the work of administration and was one of the principal 'Omara of Jahangir, to the office of Subadar of Bengal. - [Previous: 96](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.east.riyaz-al-salatin~en-abdus-salam.96) - [Next: 98](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.east.riyaz-al-salatin~en-abdus-salam.98) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.east.riyaz-al-salatin~en-abdus-salam.97](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.east.riyaz-al-salatin~en-abdus-salam.97) · Pramāṇa
