who transferred his capital from delhi to daulatabad?
muhammad bin tughlaq
on another occasion, after becoming upset by some accounts, or to run the sultanate from the center of india by other accounts, muhammad bin tughlaq ordered the transfer of his capital from delhi to devagiri in modern-day maharashtra (renaming it to daulatabad), by forcing the mass migration of delhi's population. those who refused were killed. one blind person who failed to move to daulatabad was dragged for the entire journey of 40 days - the man died, his body fell apart, and only his tied leg reached daulatabad. the capital move failed because daulatabad was arid and did not have enough drinking water to support the new capital. the capital then returned to delhi. nevertheless, muhammad bin tughlaq's orders affected history as a large number of delhi muslims who came to the deccan area did not return to delhi to live near muhammad bin tughlaq. this influx of the then-delhi residents into the deccan region led to a growth of muslim population in central and southern india. muhammad bin tughlaq's adventures in the deccan region also marked campaigns of destruction and desecration of hindu and jain temples, for example the swayambhu shiva temple and the thousand pillar temple.
