Explanation: Towards the end of Akbar's reign, the highest rank a noble could attain was raised from 5000 to 7000 and two premier nobles of the empire, Mirza Azi Koka and Raja Man Singh, were honoured with the rank of 7000 each. This limit was maintained till the end of Aurangzeb's reign. A number or other modifications were, however, carried out during the Jahangir’s period.
