It is written in Sanskrit and records the construction of a \*gomaṭha\*, a garden and a well in the town of Batihāḍim by the order of a local Muḥammadan ruler Jallāl Shojā (Jalāl Khwājah), son of Isāka (Isḥāq)-rāja. This Jallāla is stated to have been appointed as his representative by Hisāmadiṁ (Ḥisām ud-Dīn) also called Chipaka, son of Malik Julacī, who was made commander of the Kharpara armies and lord of Cedi (\*Cedi-deśādhipa\*) by the Śakendra \*Suratrāṇa\* (Sulṭān) Mahamūda (Maḥmūd) of Yoginīpura (Delhi). The inscription further states that Jallāla appointed his servant Dhanau as manager of the institutions mentioned above. The principal architects (\*Sūtradhāra\*) were Bhojūka, Kāmadeva and Hāla of the \*Śilapaṭṭa-vaṁśa\*.
