Question

the reason for the failures of Muhammad bin tughlaqs projects

Answer 1

Muhammad bin Tughlaq's projects were a fail as he did not think of the future but instead tried to postpone the problem. He gathered a large army for a war, but disbanded it when he couldn't pay them. He also transferred a huge number of citizens to Daulatabad to utilize the town as a garrison when he could have built a garrison fort for much less expense.

P.S. he is also known as the 'wise fool'.

Answer 2

Answer:

The following are the reasons why Muhammad bin Tughlaq's projects failed.

Explanation:

• His administrative initiatives were implemented at an inopportune time.

• For example, at a period of famine in the Doab region, he increased land taxes to fifty percent of the yield.

• People were unable to make payments, sparking an uprising.

• He moved his capital from Delhi to Daulatabad which was more centrally positioned in order to rule southern and northern India.

• However, he soon realised that managing the northern half of his empire from Daulatabad, a city in the far south, was problematic.

• Tanka, a form of token money devised by Muhammad Tughlaq, was a fiasco.

• Over time, forged handcrafted coins supplanted silver money. As a result, there was a financial loss.

Hence we conclude that due to the above points Muhammad bin failed the tughlaqs projects.
