Gains of the Imperial Government. The period of warfare which began with the Bundela Expedition in September, 1635, and ended now, enriched the Mughal treasury with tribute and booty amounting to two krores of rupees, and added to the empire a territory which when cultivated yielded a revenue of one krore. The Emperor now despatched a pompous letter to the Shah of Persia boasting of these conquests and gains.†
