His administration still retained some traces of Aurangzeb’s intolerance. We do not find in his reign, nor was there in the second half of his father’s reign, any Hindu in high or independent office. There was no Hindu governor of a province : no Hindu in an important position about the Court. He allowed no Hindu to be employed as a reporter or waqia-nigar. No Hindu could ride in a palki and when the Sikh rising took place, all Hindus in the employment of the State were forced to shave. [Bahadur.]
