c13.42

We have little to guide us as to the events of Bukka’s reign, but Firishtah states that he ceased to pay tribute to Fîrûz Shâh, partly owing to instigation from Gujarât, Mâlwa, and Khandeish. In Hijra 808 (June 1405 to June 1406 A.D.) four years’ tribute was owing, but the Sultan took no notice, and waited for a more convenient time.
