History of the Khaljis, A.D. 1290–1320 c21.20

c21.20

No historian, contemporary or later, says so. Hājiuddabīr who wrote in Gujarat and had a special knowledge of the history of that part of the country joins Baranī in giving a low origin to Khusrau Khān. Professor Hodivala rightly observes that "The real name of the tribe or caste to which Khusrau Khān belonged cannot be ascertained." All that is known is that he and his Barvārī associates were brave and courageous, clever and unscrupulous.
