The Mughal Empire became weak after the death of Aurangzeb in 1707, and Nadir Shah, the ruler of Iran, attacked and plundered the city of Delhi in 1739. In fact, later Mughal emperors after Aurangzeb were puppets in the hands of powerful landlords and regional chiefs. What were the origins of these local rulers?

Visva-Bharati (Bengali: [biʃːɔbʱaroti]) is a public research central university and an Institution of National Importance located in Santiniketan, West Bengal, India. It was founded by Rabindranath Tagore who called it Visva-Bharati, which means the communion of the world with India.
Explanation:
There were a number of factors that led to the decline of the Mughal Empire.
Emperor Aurangzeb fought a long war in the Deccan. As a result, the military and financial resources of his empire got depleted.
The successors of Aurangzeb were not at all efficient. The efficiency of the imperial administration broke down. It became increasingly difficult for later Mughal emperors to keep a check on their powerful Nobles appointed as governors often controlled the offices of revenue and military administration as well. this gave them extraordinary political, economic and military powers over vast regions of the Mughal Empire.
