⁴⁹ Jāran-Manjūr has been mentioned before by Amīr Khusru and Ziyauddīn Baranī in connection with a Mongol invasion in the time of 'Alāuddīn Khaljī. *Deval Rani*, 60; T.F.S. (B), 250; Ferishta, I, 102. The place mentioned by Baranī for Jāran Manjūr is Jalandhar. Yahyā (T.M.S., 218), however, makes it a place separate from Jalandhar when he says "from Jalandhar to Jāran Manjūr". Hodivala writes a long note, but gives many alternative place names (246-47). The place was either Jalandhar itself or in its environs. *Also see* K. S. Lal, *History of the Khaljīs*, 153 n. 27.
