Another entry highlights Thakur Ramsingh’s literal translation of the Persian chronicle Ma’asir‑i‑Fakhrîngirî, which sheds light on Mughal administrative history.

“In opposition to the view held by some scholars that the land of the Kuru-Paficilas was चाह home of cualture in the Vedic period, the author of this paper has adduced evidences to prove that Videha- Magadha also was a prominent centre of intellectual culture at that time and that the Brakmavidy2 of the Upanisads had its home in the country of Videha-Magadha.”
“ing to this note the Imperial Pratihdras of Kanouj belonged to the Solar (Raghu’s) race and not to the Gurjara clan ; 50 it is erroneous to describe them as Gurjara-Pratiharas,”
“This is a literal trans- lation of the AMaasir-i-fahangiri, the well-known Persian account of the time of the Emperor Jahangir by Khwaja Kamgar Ghairat,”
