Aurangzīb’s intentions and policy towards the two independent Muhammadan kingdoms differed widely, as his subsequent conduct showed, from his father’s, but he did not molest them during his first tenure of the viceroyalty. He had, however, succeeded in obtaining from his father permission to annex Bāglān, the principality of the Rāthor Bairam Baharji. The attack on Bairam was an act of purposeless aggression. Bairam received the command of 3000 horse in the imperial army and an assignment of the district of Sultānpur, adjoining his late principality. - [Previous: v4.c19.180](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.burn-1937.v4.c19.180) - [Next: v4.c19.182](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.burn-1937.v4.c19.182) - [Up: v4.c19](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.burn-1937.v4.c19) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.burn-1937.v4.c19.181](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.burn-1937.v4.c19.181) · Pramāṇa
