¹²⁷ This Tughlaqpur is not the one situated near Safedon. It is mentioned as a Mahāl of the Sarkar of Saharanpur in the Āīn. Trs. II, 292. In Elliot's days (circa 1840) the chief town of the pargana of Tughlaqpur was Nūr Nagar because Nūr Jahān is said to have resided there for some time. The pargana was also known as Gobardhanpur (*Races*, II, 131). Today the villages of Tughlaqpur, Nūr Nagar and Gobardhanpur lie 17, 22 and 28 miles respectively north-east of Muzaffarnagar town.
