c8.s3.3

Even when the intentions of Khizr Khan were now no longer a secret, Sultan Mahmūd was more complacent than ever. Yahyā makes a pointed reference to the fact that after the Sultan's in-vestment by Khizr Khan in 1409 "Mahmūd remained in Delhi and undertook no further incursions". Only once did he go out to Katehar, but that too just for hunting, and kept himself busy in "amusement and merry-making".⁸⁰
