The Qaramitah of Multan held the greater part of Upper Sind. The history of Uch, however, is far from clear. Later writers like Yahya Sirhindi, Ferishta and others, probably on the authority of Ibnul Asir, state that it was held by the Bhatti Rajputs¹. The annals of the Bhattis, however, do not make the slightest reference to their ever having held Uch². A likelier suggestion is that it was held by the Qaramitah; Muizzuddin in any case captured both Uch and Multan in one operation in 571/1175³.
