v2.c19.s4.3

At this darbar of 1st May, Nadir Shah urged all the nobles and officers of India to obey and please their Emperor. He also gave them and their master much valuable advice on the art of government, and decreed that henceforth farmans should again issue on Muhammad Shah's behalf, and the khutba and coins should bear his name and title. Khutba and coinage in Nadir's name, after having been current in India for two months, were now discontinued. [Jahan. 362.] On this day the Persian conqueror sent off four farmans of his own to Nasir Jang, Nasir-ud-daulah, Rajah Sahu and Baji Rao, urging them to respect the settlement he had made and to obey Muhammad Shah in future. [Jahankusha 361-362, Rajwade vi. 167, Ali Hazin 301, Bayan 57, Anandram 80-83.]
