Majid Khan, in concert with the other Pathan nawabs of Kaddapa and Karnul, took a prominent part in the contests between the rival candidates for the Nizam's throne. He intrigued with the French, and in pursuance of a conspiracy in favour of Muzaffar Jang held aloof from Nasir Jang, with whose army he was serving on the occasion, when the latter met his death. He afterwards conspired against Muzaffar Jang and was killed in the action, which the latter also met with the same fate (A.D. 1751).²
