Answer 2

Answer:

Shams-ud-din Iltutmish or Altamash (1167-1236) after ascending to the throne, realised that Turkish nobles were not trustworthy and could conspire against him to overthrow his rule. Therefore, he had a group of faithful slaves to protect him. This group was known as Amir-i-Chahalgani, or The Forty.
