Answers
Answer:
Administration under the Sultanate:
The machinery of administration as it evolved under the Delhi sultanate was derived from the Abbasid and following it, the Ghaznavid and the Seljukid systems of administration.
It was also influenced by the Iranian system of administration and the situation in India and Indian traditions.
The Turks were also able to evolve a number of new institutions and concepts which provided a basis for centralization of power and authority of a type which had not existed in India earlier. In theory, the Muslim state was a theocracy, i.e. the head of state was also the religious head and derived his position and authority from God. Thus, the Caliph was the Supreme head of the whole Muslim world.
With the exception of Alauddin Khilji and Mubarak Khilji, all other sultans styled themselves as deputies of the Caliph with title such as Nasir-i-Amir-ul-Mommin or Yamin-ul-Khalifa. Although the Sultans of Delhi professed formal allegiance to the Caliphate, the Sultanate was always an independent state for all practical purposes.
