New History of the Marathas v1.c19.10

- **Language:** English

### [v1.c19.10](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.sardesai-1946.v1.c19.10)

The conquered forts were all given new names in the Muhammadan style by the Emperor, but those names have not survived in popular use. Satara was renamed Azam-tara, Parali Navrastara, Panhala Nabishahdurg and so on. But the conquest of Sinhagad in 1703 gave such supreme satisfaction to the Emperor’s heart that he gave it the significant name \*Bakshinda Baksh\*, “a reward given by the Almighty.”
