v1.c9.s31.5

At this point a few other changes may be noted. As a consequence of Muhammad Amin Khan's loss of favour, the office of paymaster to the *Ahadis* was taken from his son, Qamr-ud-din Khan, and given to Zafar Khan Turra-i-baz on the 1st Rabi I. 1131 H. (21st January, 1719). Then, Inayatullah Khan, with whom Qutb-ul-mulk was displeased for his refusal to bow before the authority of Rajah Ratan Chand, lost his appointment of *diwan*. But as Farrukh-siyar believed in this man's honesty, he was not kept altogether out of employ, but transferred to the post of *Khan-saman*, or Lord Steward, on the 3rd Rabi I. 1131 H. (23rd January, 1719). The diwanship of the *Tan* (assigned revenues) was made over to Rajah Bakht Mal, a protégé of Muhammad Yar Khan; as for the Exchequer or *Khalsa*, Qutb-ul-mulk was told to carry on the duties till someone else was nominated, 4th Rabi I. 1131 H. (24th January, 1719). [M. M. 443.]
