v1.c6.s8.2

∗ Bhimsen asserts that on Munim Khan's advice Bahadur Shah had formed the deliberate plan of conquering the Rajput States in order to find more lands to grant as *jagirs* to his nobles, his undue liberality having already exhausted all that were available. As a pretext for the Emperor's advance, he gave out that he meant to visit the shrine at Ajmer of Muinud-din Chishti. (*Dil.* 169b.)
