v1.c9.s20.10

On the 9th Rabi I. 1128 H. (3rd March, 1716), Mir Jumla moved to Nizam-ul-mulk's house, and next day that noble conducted him as far as Narela,† and thence sent him on to Sarhind. At that place he delayed seven or eight months, putting up in the common roadside sarai in the hope of exciting Farrukh-siyar's commiseration, but finally, by express order, he was forced to move on to Lahor. His titles were not restored until the 21st Jamadi, II. 1128 H. (11th June, 1716), on the intercession of Qutb-ul-mulk, who at the same time obtained for him a jagir of three lakhs of Rupees. The Mughals sought service where they could. Their principal officer, Bahadur Dil Khan, was for a time with Qutb-ul-mulk, but not succeeding to his wishes, he transferred himself to Khan Dauran. In that service he stopped for a long time, without having any influence; he was then ordered to join Husain Ali Khan in the Dakhin.‡
