Answer:
During Muhammad bin Tuglaq's reign the empire had also apread to the south. He shifted his capital to Devagiri near modern Aurangabad and renamed it Daulatabad. He did it for the following reasons.
- Daulatabad was centrally located from where he could control the Deccan territories
- Delhi was in the grip of severe famine
- Delhi was contantly threatened by the mongol invasions.
He ordered the people of Delhi including religious heads to shift to Daulatabad. On realising the gravity of the threat from north-west he decided to shift the capital back to Delhi .This caused lots of hardships to the people.
