with.reference to the delhi Sultan and discuss in detail about the four schemes taken by MD Bin Tughlaq? why did they fail?
Answers
Answer:
Muhammad Tughluq's administrative measures were a failure, we can prove this statement with the following points:
1. He campaigned into Kashmir which was a disaster. He then gave up his plans to invade Transoxiana and disbanded his large army.
2. His administrative measures created problems. He shifted the residents of the old city to the new capital of Daulatabad in the south. People did not like this step taken by Muhammad Tughluq. They resented collectively.
3. Tughluq, in order to meet the expense of maintaining a large number of soldiers, levied additional taxes which increased the burden of common people.
4. The famine in the Ganga-Yamuna belt led to widespread rebellion.
5. Muhammad Tughluq's policy of 'token' currency also proved a failure. People of the 14th century did not trust this currency. They were very smart. They saved their gold and silver coins and paid all their taxes to the state with the token currency. This cheap currency could also be counterfeited easily.
Most of the plans of Muhammad Bin Tughlaq failed because these were ill-timed, ill-planned and badly executed. 7. The Deccan Policy
